Monty Williams Wants Hornets To Add Size, Doesn't Think Draft Is Deep With Talent

Monty Williams indicated the Hornets need to add size during the offseason.
New Orleans is slotted fourth and tenth in the upcoming draft lottery.
“I could foresee us drafting a big, but there are a couple of guards in this draft that are pretty good with a high upside,” Williams said Sunday. “It’s one of those situations where the pick will dictate all of that, and (General Manager) Dell (Demps) may have a situation where he may want to trade the pick to get a veteran player. We’re still not sure. We’ve got to find out where we’re going to draft.”
Williams has tagged this as a weak draft, with little star power at the top of the board.
"I don’t see this deep draft everybody is talking about,’’ Williams said. "I think there are a few players at the top that are really good that can be good players. But I don’t see any Carmelos or LeBrons.’
"I don’t think you’re going to find a (Manu) Ginobili at 52. The last few weeks I’ve had a chance to look at all these young guys on tape and I’m not jaded by the hoopla as everybody else is. I think there are good players, but I don’t see this deep draft.’’
