You may not have to worry at all about the Hornets even considering trading LaMelo Ball for anyone on your roster, including Amen.
That would be a mistake because that means hornets are overrating LaMelo. He is a good player, but he plays no defense and there is nobody on that team that can score. It's really easy to pad stats on a squad that is losing every game where you are the only guy that teams fear. Defenses will just key in on the other guys and let Lamelo get his, which has been a winning strategy.
Hornets just locked up LaMelo at a bargain price for a top-3 scorer in the NBA.
There is just no way in hell Hornets are listening on LaMelo.
This is a fantasy coming from your fanbase.
It's totally unrealistic.
Yeah he's only top 3 score due to volume and not because he actually is a top 3 scorer. He also plays no defense and is on a bad team. It's impressive but context matters. If he were doing this on a winning team your statements would make sense. I'm not saying Hornets should accept a low ball offer, or even neutral value. I am saying if Houston offered Sengun and Amen for LaMelo, it would be high way robbery for Charlotte, and Houston would never offer that. Charlotte would be idiots to turn that down.
