## Resource

Jarrett Allen, a defensive powerhouse with a massive wingspan, could be the perfect fit for the Charlotte Hornets. If the Cavaliers miss the playoffs, they might be open to trading him, and the Hornets have the assets to make a deal. Allens elite mobility and rim-running ability would significantly improve the Hornets offense and defense, addressing their biggest weakness from last season. His contract also aligns with the Hornets timeline. Keep an eye on post-draft lottery moves, as Allen could be the bold swing the Hornets need to improve.
