Summary
The Charlotte Hornets are eyeing a major draft move, with Morez Johnson Jr. — the rising star from Michigan’s NCAA championship team — potentially slipping away before their 14th pick. With insiders calling him a “lottery lock,” Johnson’s stock is soaring, and the Hornets may even try to trade up to land his Michigan teammate Yaxel Lendeborg. If Johnson joins Charlotte, he’d bring elite inside scoring and rebounding to a team that’s already turned things around this season — possibly unlocking their path to playoff contention.
