Gonzaga small forward Corey Kispert is the 13th ranked overall prospect by ESPN.

If the Hornets want to add a pure shooter with Joe Harris and Bojan Bogdanovic type potential, Corey Kispert would be the perfect addition.

Charlotte ranked 22nd among the league in shooting percentage last season and 13th in three-point percentage. Kispert could instantly help boost those numbers as a guy who can be used off the bench.

Kispert, 22, is coming off his best collegiate season with Bull Dogs in which he averaged 18.6 points per game on 44.6 percent shooting from the three-point line. He averaged just 6.5 threes per game.

He rarely took bad shots with Gonzaga and also proved to be a solid defender, unlike most pure shooters.

However, Kispert isn’t the best ball-handler and might be seen as too one-dimensional to some teams.

In today’s league, Charlotte will have to seriously consider Kispert if available.
