3. Charlotte Hornets

Charlotte is not a team that usually comes to mind when thinking about ideal destinations for superstars to sign, but they very well could be in the picture for Anthony this offseason. Michael Jordan could have a big impact recruiting stars to the Hornets, and that could be a huge draw for Anthony when everything is said and done.

The Hornets have the type of money to offer a highly competitive contract, and they also have a need for a number one scorer to go alongside Al Jefferson and Kemba Walker. They may not be the most attractive option for Anthony, but if they decide to be aggressive in pursuing him, they might very well be able to steal him away from the bigger markets.
