    Kevin O’Connor’s latest mock has VJ Edgecombe headed to Charlotte at pick #4—but is that really a done deal? Walker, Doug, and special guest Nata Edwards dive deep into the draft rumor mill, debate whether Edgecombe is the right pick, and discuss the possibility of a draft-day curveball involving Trey Johnson, Ace Bailey, or even a surprise trade-down for extra assets. Plus, they break down Cedric Coward’s meteoric rise and whether his limited tape is worth the gamble in the lottery.That’s just the beginning—because it’s also time for the first round of the $20M Unrestricted Free Agent Draft! Doug and Walker build five-man teams using only players whose last AAV falls under the $20M mark. Who grabs the value gem? Who overpays? And which of these names should actually be on Charlotte’s radar this summer?📌 In this episode:Is VJ Edgecombe really a LOCK at #4?Draft debate: Trey Johnson, Ace Bailey, or trade down?Cedric Coward: real deal or too risky?$20M Unrestricted Free Agent Draft: sleeper picks + strategyWho the Hornets should target in free agency🧰 Mentioned in this episode:Kevin O’Connor mock draft (Yahoo Sports)VJ Edgecombe, Cedric Coward, Tre Johnson, Ace BaileyFree agents: Nickeil Alexander-Walker, Paul Reed, Ty Jerome, Tre JonesFollow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…🎧 https://linktr.ee/lockedonhornetsBecome an official member of the Locked On Hornets Sicko Brigade and get Hornets news, rumors and pictures of Byron Mullens sent directly to your phone via Subtext (14 Day Free Trial): https://joinsubtext.com/lockedonhornetsLocked On NBA League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Draft, WNBA & More🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNBAGet Doug's gamenotes, special articles and a podcast on Hornets history at the Every Hornets Boxscore substack: everyhornetsboxscore.comGet more Walker on Wes and Walker 12-3pm on WFNZ 92.7 FMTop 35 Hornets Nicknames of All-Time According to Doug Branson: https://hornets.substack.com/p/the-top-35-nicknames-in-hornets-franchiseTop 35 Hornets of All-Time According to Walker Mehl: https://hornets.substack.com/p/the-top-35-players-in-hornets-history📲 Follow Locked On Hornets on TwitterLocked On Hornets https://twitter.com/LockedOnHornetsWalker Mehl https://twitter.com/WalkerMehlDoug Branson https://twitter.com/DougBransonLOH Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!SKIMSShop SKIMS Mens at SKIMS.com/lockedonnba.

    Forgot About TRE? Have Hornets Mock Drafts Tilted TOO FAR To VJ Edgecombe? + Brandon Miller vs. Amen Thompson
    2025/05/29
    On this episode of Locked On Hornets, Walker and Doug break down the Hornets' evolving draft strategy, focusing on the rising momentum behind VJ Edgecombe as the likely pick at #4. While Tre Johnson’s scoring talent and mid-range polish still have fans intrigued, Doug and Walker examine whether Edgecombe’s defensive impact and culture fit make him the better long-term investment. They compare Edgecombe’s playoff-ready skillset to role players thriving in the current NBA postseason, including Oklahoma City’s tenacious wings.They also revisit a fan-favorite topic in the Big Board Time Machine, rewinding to the 2017 NBA Draft when the Hornets took Malik Monk over Donovan Mitchell. Walker reflects on his first-ever show appearance and the team's draft-room drama between Rich Cho and Steve Clifford.Plus, the guys discuss Amen Thompson's meteoric rise and how his playoff performances stack up against Brandon Miller's injury-shortened year. Should Hornets fans be concerned? And what can Charlotte learn from how Houston built a team identity around defense-first versatility?Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…🎧 https://linktr.ee/lockedonhornetsBecome an official member of the Locked On Hornets Sicko Brigade and get Hornets news, rumors and pictures of Byron Mullens sent directly to your phone via Subtext (14 Day Free Trial): https://joinsubtext.com/lockedonhornetsLocked On NBA League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Draft, WNBA & More🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNBAGet Doug's gamenotes, special articles and a podcast on Hornets history at the Every Hornets Boxscore substack: everyhornetsboxscore.comGet more Walker on Wes and Walker 12-3pm on WFNZ 92.7 FMTop 35 Hornets Nicknames of All-Time According to Doug Branson: https://hornets.substack.com/p/the-top-35-nicknames-in-hornets-franchiseTop 35 Hornets of All-Time According to Walker Mehl: https://hornets.substack.com/p/the-top-35-players-in-hornets-history📲 Follow Locked On Hornets on TwitterLocked On Hornets https://twitter.com/LockedOnHornetsWalker Mehl https://twitter.com/WalkerMehlDoug Branson https://twitter.com/DougBransonLOH Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!SKIMSShop SKIMS Mens at SKIMS.com/lockedonnba.

  • Chris Paul Hornets Homecoming? 👀 | Brandon Miller's Growth Delayed or Stalled? | Sicko Satchel Road Trip Debate

    Chris Paul Hornets Homecoming? 👀 | Brandon Miller's Growth Delayed or Stalled? | Sicko Satchel Road Trip Debate
    2025/05/28
    Should the Charlotte Hornets make one last run at bringing Chris Paul back to his hometown? On today’s episode of Locked On Hornets, we dive into the longstanding debate on CP3's potential return—this time with real context as he looks for a new team after his San Antonio stint. We weigh the pros and cons of adding a 40-year-old legend to back up LaMelo Ball, especially given the Hornets' injury history and halfcourt struggles.Doug argues that a consistent play style is more important than nostalgia, while Walker sees value in CP3’s veteran savvy and game management. What would $10M get Charlotte this offseason—and is it worth the price tag?Then it’s time for a journey through the Big Board Time Machine as we reevaluate Brandon Miller’s pre-draft scouting report. Has he shown the “can do everything” game scouts promised, or is his lack of rim pressure and finishing still a concern?Plus: Sicko Satchel chaos! A NASCAR-distance road trip question turns into fast food debates, combo snacks, Zaxby’s devotion, and hypothetical burps from bad Italian food. Finally, a tease of Friday’s mock UFA draft challenge with only $20M to spend.Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…🎧 https://linktr.ee/lockedonhornetsBecome an official member of the Locked On Hornets Sicko Brigade and get Hornets news, rumors and pictures of Byron Mullens sent directly to your phone via Subtext (14 Day Free Trial): https://joinsubtext.com/lockedonhornetsLocked On NBA League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Draft, WNBA & More🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNBAGet Doug's gamenotes, special articles and a podcast on Hornets history at the Every Hornets Boxscore substack: everyhornetsboxscore.comGet more Walker on Wes and Walker 12-3pm on WFNZ 92.7 FMTop 35 Hornets Nicknames of All-Time According to Doug Branson: https://hornets.substack.com/p/the-top-35-nicknames-in-hornets-franchiseTop 35 Hornets of All-Time According to Walker Mehl: https://hornets.substack.com/p/the-top-35-players-in-hornets-history📲 Follow Locked On Hornets on TwitterLocked On Hornets https://twitter.com/LockedOnHornetsWalker Mehl https://twitter.com/WalkerMehlDoug Branson https://twitter.com/DougBransonLOH Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!SKIMSShop SKIMS Mens at SKIMS.com/lockedonnba.

  • Why Hornets Turnover Woes Make VJ Edgecombe a MUST-DRAFT + Our Hottest Draft Takes

    Why Hornets Turnover Woes Make VJ Edgecombe a MUST-DRAFT + Our Hottest Draft Takes
    2025/05/27
    In this episode of Locked On Hornets, Doug Branson and Walker Mehl take a deep dive into the Hornets’ glaring deficiency in the one stat that’s quietly defining postseason success: turnover differential. Building off a powerful analysis from Yhe F5 Substack, Doug reveals how the Hornets’ inability to protect the basketball or create turnovers puts them behind even teams like Portland and Utah. You’ll hear how elite teams like OKC and Indiana leverage ball control, and why the Hornets—ranked near dead last—are in trouble unless things change.Read Doug's Substack Article: https://hornets.substack.com/p/i-charted-the-hornets-are-losersBut it’s not all doom and gloom. Doug charts where key Hornets land on the turnover impact spectrum and explains why LaMelo Ball’s quiet improvement in turnover percentage might hint at untapped upside. The guys also dive into a hot take draft segment where Doug declares Dylan Harper the true prize of the draft—even ahead of Cooper Flagg—while Walker goes all-in on VJ Edgecombe as a franchise saver.Plus:Why Cade, LaMelo, and Haliburton form a revealing triangle of guard stylesWho Doug calls a "bleep-hole defender" the Hornets needThe second-round center who could outshine MaluachIf you care about roster building, the draft, and what’s really killing the Hornets’ postseason hopes, this episode delivers.Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…🎧 https://linktr.ee/lockedonhornetsBecome an official member of the Locked On Hornets Sicko Brigade and get Hornets news, rumors and pictures of Byron Mullens sent directly to your phone via Subtext (14 Day Free Trial): https://joinsubtext.com/lockedonhornetsLocked On NBA League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Draft, WNBA & More🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNBAGet Doug's gamenotes, special articles and a podcast on Hornets history at the Every Hornets Boxscore substack: everyhornetsboxscore.comGet more Walker on Wes and Walker 12-3pm on WFNZ 92.7 FMTop 35 Hornets Nicknames of All-Time According to Doug Branson: https://hornets.substack.com/p/the-top-35-nicknames-in-hornets-franchiseTop 35 Hornets of All-Time According to Walker Mehl: https://hornets.substack.com/p/the-top-35-players-in-hornets-history📲 Follow Locked On Hornets on TwitterLocked On Hornets https://twitter.com/LockedOnHornetsWalker Mehl https://twitter.com/WalkerMehlDoug Branson https://twitter.com/DougBransonLOH Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!SKIMSShop SKIMS Mens at SKIMS.com/lockedonnba.

  • Brandon Miller ONLY Untouchable? | Sicko Satchel: Jarrett Allen trade, LaMelo Hurting Rebuild?

    Brandon Miller ONLY Untouchable? | Sicko Satchel: Jarrett Allen trade, LaMelo Hurting Rebuild?
    2025/05/23
    Is Brandon Miller the only untouchable on the Hornets roster? That’s the bold claim from a new report making the rounds—and Doug and Walker are here to break it down. They unpack what this says about LaMelo Ball’s perceived value around the league, and why Miles Bridges may be stuck in trade limbo for reasons beyond just his contract.Then, it’s time to talk bigs. A fan-submitted trade idea sends Jarrett Allen to Charlotte—would it work? Doug and Walker debate Allen’s fit, his playoff shortcomings, and whether the Hornets should invest in a traditional rim protector at the cost of future flexibility. Spoiler: Walker isn’t sold.The conversation shifts to the NBA Draft, where the Hornets hold back-to-back picks at 33 and 34. Is it smarter to swing twice or try to package up and move into the late first round? The guys compare notes on rising center prospects, second-round strategy, and how Charlotte might emulate the Thunder’s draft-day magic.Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…🎧 https://linktr.ee/lockedonhornetsBecome an official member of the Locked On Hornets Sicko Brigade and get Hornets news, rumors and pictures of Byron Mullens sent directly to your phone via Subtext (14 Day Free Trial): https://joinsubtext.com/lockedonhornetsLocked On NBA League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Draft, WNBA & More🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNBAGet Doug's gamenotes, special articles and a podcast on Hornets history at the Every Hornets Boxscore substack: everyhornetsboxscore.comGet more Walker on Wes and Walker 12-3pm on WFNZ 92.7 FMTop 35 Hornets Nicknames of All-Time According to Doug Branson: https://hornets.substack.com/p/the-top-35-nicknames-in-hornets-franchiseTop 35 Hornets of All-Time According to Walker Mehl: https://hornets.substack.com/p/the-top-35-players-in-hornets-history📲 Follow Locked On Hornets on TwitterLocked On Hornets https://twitter.com/LockedOnHornetsWalker Mehl https://twitter.com/WalkerMehlDoug Branson https://twitter.com/DougBransonLOH Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!SKIMSShop SKIMS Mens at SKIMS.com/lockedonnba.

  • Hornets MUST Copy Pacers' Strategy | Miles Bridges' ROLE Raises Eyebrows | 2018 Mock Draft Revisited

    Hornets MUST Copy Pacers' Strategy | Miles Bridges' ROLE Raises Eyebrows | 2018 Mock Draft Revisited
    2025/05/22
    The Pacers stunned the Knicks in Game 1 at MSG, and Locked On Hornets is here to break it all down—and look at what Charlotte can learn. Aaron Nesmith, Obi Toppin, and other “second-draft” success stories stole the spotlight. So, is this the path the Hornets need to take? Doug, Walker, and guest Nata Edwards of the Eye On College Basketball Podcast dig into the blueprint for small-market survival.They also flash back to the 2018 NBA Draft and revisit the trade that sent Shai Gilgeous-Alexander packing in favor of Miles Bridges. What if the Hornets had kept SGA or taken Collin Sexton instead? This mock draft retrospective is both painful and insightful.Then comes the biggest question: What’s really going on with Miles Bridges? The Hornets continue to publicly elevate him as a franchise leader, even as controversy lingers and fans are left questioning the optics. Is it genuine support? A PR misfire? Or an effort to boost trade value?Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…🎧 https://linktr.ee/lockedonhornetsBecome an official member of the Locked On Hornets Sicko Brigade and get Hornets news, rumors and pictures of Byron Mullens sent directly to your phone via Subtext (14 Day Free Trial): https://joinsubtext.com/lockedonhornetsLocked On NBA League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Draft, WNBA & More🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNBAGet Doug's gamenotes, special articles and a podcast on Hornets history at the Every Hornets Boxscore substack: everyhornetsboxscore.comGet more Walker on Wes and Walker 12-3pm on WFNZ 92.7 FMTop 35 Hornets Nicknames of All-Time According to Doug Branson: https://hornets.substack.com/p/the-top-35-nicknames-in-hornets-franchiseTop 35 Hornets of All-Time According to Walker Mehl: https://hornets.substack.com/p/the-top-35-players-in-hornets-history📲 Follow Locked On Hornets on TwitterLocked On Hornets https://twitter.com/LockedOnHornetsWalker Mehl https://twitter.com/WalkerMehlDoug Branson https://twitter.com/DougBransonLOH Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!SKIMSShop SKIMS Mens at SKIMS.com/lockedonnba.

  • Should Hornets Trade for Paul George and Picks? | LaMelo’s OFFSEASON Plan & Tre Mann Updates

    Should Hornets Trade for Paul George and Picks? | LaMelo’s OFFSEASON Plan & Tre Mann Updates
    2025/05/21
    LaMelo Ball’s evolution into a playoff-caliber leader is underway. Hornets head coach Charles Lee spoke with Rod Boone about LaMelo's physical and mental recovery, emphasizing the importance of strength, durability, and refining his decision-making—especially on defense and shot selection. Link: https://www.charlotteobserver.com/sports/charlotte-hornets/article306644951.htmlDoug and Walker break down what "skill acquisition" could really mean for LaMelo this offseason and how that ties into the Hornets’ identity.Tre Mann’s mysterious absence finally gets some clarity. Despite a long silence, social media hints and a Charles Lee update suggest real progress from the back injury that derailed his season. But is that enough for the Hornets to offer him a new contract—or will they let him walk?And finally, the Paul George conversation. ESPN’s latest mock draft sparks a debate: Should the Hornets entertain acquiring a star like PG13, even if it means taking on a massive contract and giving up future assets? Doug and Walker evaluate the trade’s long-term risks and short-term rewards, all while navigating Charlotte’s reputation as an “unserious team.”Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…🎧 https://linktr.ee/lockedonhornetsBecome an official member of the Locked On Hornets Sicko Brigade and get Hornets news, rumors and pictures of Byron Mullens sent directly to your phone via Subtext (14 Day Free Trial): https://joinsubtext.com/lockedonhornetsLocked On NBA League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Draft, WNBA & More🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNBAGet Doug's gamenotes, special articles and a podcast on Hornets history at the Every Hornets Boxscore substack: everyhornetsboxscore.comGet more Walker on Wes and Walker 12-3pm on WFNZ 92.7 FMTop 35 Hornets Nicknames of All-Time According to Doug Branson: https://hornets.substack.com/p/the-top-35-nicknames-in-hornets-franchiseTop 35 Hornets of All-Time According to Walker Mehl: https://hornets.substack.com/p/the-top-35-players-in-hornets-history📲 Follow Locked On Hornets on TwitterLocked On Hornets https://twitter.com/LockedOnHornetsWalker Mehl https://twitter.com/WalkerMehlDoug Branson https://twitter.com/DougBransonLOH Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!SKIMSShop SKIMS Mens at SKIMS.com/lockedonnba.
