James Nnaji and NBA
Nnaji had his NBA dream delayed for another season.
The Charlotte Hornets made a draft-day trade on June 23 to obtain James Nnaji by swapping their 34th and 39th picks.
Nnaji, who is only 18 years old and first became well-known thanks to his efforts for Barcelona last season, possesses NBA-caliber athleticism but is still an exceptionally undeveloped big-man prospect.
The Hornets will have team control over one of Europe's top big man prospects by allowing Nnaji to grow in Europe.
It's just a matter of honing Nnaji's game and expanding his skill set because he already possesses the physical tools required to succeed at the NBA level.
