BIG shout out to our newest Hornet! Malik will be the steal of this excellent draft. A deadly scorer who will surprise many in how he improves as an overall player.
I continue to wait...and hope...for the return to Hornet's glory.

He's only 19. He has room to improve the rest of his game.

Great pick.

I always welcome a combo guard.

One thing for sure, our team will be more religious with a monk.

I am ecstatic right now....

I predict he wears #1, and I'll be able to tape "Monk" over the back of my Lance jersey

What if Monk is just a young Janerro Pargo with more hops. I mean, you can see it, right? Pargo was lights out shooter, 6'3". Combo guard. Could play some PG, but not well. No defense.
