4. Conclusion

So in a worst-case scenario the Bobcats used their last three first round picks on two role players and a bust. It is way too early to label Zeller as a bust, but it also might be too hopeful to think that MKG and Kemba Walker can turn into superstars. From what they’ve shown so far in the NBA, MKG and Walker might be best suited when they’re the third and fourth options rather than the primary or secondary. With Al Jefferson locked up for awhile, would it be best for the Bobcats to tank this year? We know how loaded this draft class is and if they land a top five pick they might be able to pick the perfect player for MKG and Kemba to compliment.
