They were a mediocre team last year. Why try to replace that? There is a bit of need for a slasher if Peja returns to a solid form next year, as he would do well shooting off of penetration. I suppose if they were looking for a pure slasher, Stuckey would fit well, but Nick Young can shoot better IMO as well as slash (when he wants to).
With Peja injured for basically the whole season, Butler showed flashes but was never consistent. Butler is a bench player at best. I have no idea how athletic Nick Young is, but the Hornets really lack an athletic player from the start of next season.
Nick Young
for reasons already mentioned......a mid-range shot can be hard to find these days
The Hornets select Nick Young
Best available SG.
