LaMelo to CLIPPERS?! | Why Hornets Should TRADE UP for Dylan Harper at 2 | Edgecombe a lock at 4?

Is LaMelo Ball on the move? On this episode of Locked On Hornets, Doug, Walker, and returning guest David Walker dive into a wild scenario floated by Lonzo Ball — LaMelo to the Clippers and Dylan Harper to Charlotte. They unpack the Clippers’ potential trade assets, whether Harper and LaMelo are mutually exclusive, and why this rumor might actually make sense for both sides. The panel debates whether Charlotte should make a bold move up to the No. 2 pick to grab Harper and what it might cost — including whether Harper is worth parting ways with LaMelo. Is this the right time for a reset, or are the Hornets better off building around Ball and Brandon Miller? Meanwhile, the draft picture keeps shifting. VJ Edgecombe continues to be the overwhelming consensus at No. 4 in recent mocks, but could Tre Johnson or Ace Bailey still sneak into the conversation? Doug and Walker break down the fan reactions to recent YouTube thumbnails, the upside of Edgecombe's international performance, and how he might fit into Charlotte's future backcourt. With the draft drawing closer and the front office possibly itching for a shake-up, now’s the time to start connecting the dots. Don’t miss the most important Hornets conversation of the offseason so far.
