Hornets Beat Writer for the Charlotte Observer Rick Bonnell joined the Mac Attack to discuss the Hornets getting the 3rd overall pick, the NBA ratings being down, and which prospects he likes the best.
Mac asks Rick about why the NBA ratings are down and Rick says he doesn't have just one answer and it could be all the sports coming back at once.
T-Bone asks Rick if the Hornets should draft more for need or best player available and Rick says "The Hornets are the most star-less team in the league.
They need to draft someone they think is going to be a superstar." Mac asks Rick about LaMelo Ball and if the Hornets should draft him if he's available and Rick says how it would be nice for the Hornets to have an over-sized guard for once and they shouldn't shy away from him due to who his Dad is.
Rick also says if the Hornets walk away from the draft with either James Wiseman or Deni Avdija then it would be a success in his eyes.
