#6: Charlotte Hornets select Stephon Castle 

I’m not a big fan of Castle’s attitude coming into the draft, as he claimed he wouldn’t even work out for teams that had a point guard even though he himself has never proven he can be one. 

Most of the teams in the top 10 have a point guard in place, so Castle may be disappointed, but this one makes sense, as he can be the secondary playmaker and perimeter defender next to LaMelo Ball. 

Charlotte needs defense and toughness, not to mention some insurance for Ball, who has been injury prone just like his brother. You have to wonder about those shoes...
