There are some teams that could view Onyeka Okongwu as undersized at 6-foot-9. His skill and athleticism will take over. Teams might pass on a big man in the early picks of the 2020 NBA Draft but this could benefit the Hornets.

This is not to say that Okongwu has to start as a rookie. He has what it takes to turn into a quality starter during his career but that does not have to be rushed. He is a strong finisher at the rim and can protect it on the other end. Okongwu is an exciting player and a young one.

This is the direction that the Hornets are going in. They seem to be adding more youth and athleticism to their roster. Okongwu would also serve as a dynamic pick-and-roll big with Devonte’ Graham and Terry Rozier.

Charlotte is in need of some good players. P.J. Washington and Miles Bridges would benefit from Okongwu. Cody Zeller is set to be a restricted free agent in 2021 and Okongwu would be a nice replacement.
