Devin Carter's draft stock has skyrocketed in recent months. What would it look like if he landed with the Charlotte Hornets?
Much like Dalton Knecht, Devin Carter had a winding road to college superstardom. Carter was a four-star prospect according to 24/7 Sports, and he committed to the University of South Carolina out of high school. Carter headed north to Columbia, South Carolina from Miami, where his dad, former NBA player Anthony Carter, was on the Heat’s coaching staff.
Carter’s game screams Big East. The conference was built on elite big men, and tough, hard-nosed, do-it-all guards, which describes Carter to a tee. On the conference’s biggest stage, the Big East Tournament at Madison Square Garden, Carter shined. He averaged 22.6 points, 9.3 rebounds, 4.3 assists, and two steals per game in three tournament contests. When the lights shined bright, Carter stepped up.
His floor game makes him a solid prospect, but if he continues to improve as a shooter, he'll quickly become a long-term starter. It's a bit of a blip compared to his past shooting splits, but Carter shot 37.7% from deep as a junior. He flashed the ability to shoot equally well on pull-ups jumpers, and catch-and-shoot jumpers in his junior season. There are questions about his form , but overall, his jumper is a plus as it stands.
It was stated earlier, but Carter's three-point shooting drastically improved in his junior season. However, his form leaves much to be desired. Carter's release is low and slow. Three good words when you're talking about smoking a rack of ribs, but not when you're talking about a prospect's jumper. He doesn't boast elite size , and that combined with his poor shooting form make him susceptible to contests from longer wing defenders.
The most impressive part of Carter's game is his defensive rebounding skill. He has a nose for the ball and a desire to pull down every board. Josh Hart's impact as a rebounding guard carried the Knicks on the glass for stretches, and Carter will have the ability to do the same.If it were up to me, Devin Carter would be the Hornets' selection at number six. Everything he does would fit in well ancillary piece with LaMelo Ball, Brandon Miller, and Mark Williams.
