Charlotte Hornets Trade Rumours: 3 things to expect before the trade deadline

#2 The team won't add a second All-Star

Despite being controlled by the most famous basketball player of all-time, the Charlotte Hornets have had a difficult time when it comes to attracting All-Stars. The team's prospects are not helped due to the constraints of being located in a small market, and the team has also failed to do anything on the court that would convince top players to consider Charlotte.

Nevertheless, both Kevin Love and Andre Drummond are reportedly available this month, and the Hornets have been linked with making a move for Drummond. While the prospect of adding a second All-Star may sound appealing, Drummond has failed to put the Pistons over the top this year, and there is no guarantee that the center's arrival would secure a playoff spot.

The Hornets also fall short on having the assets to complete a trade, and the team seems better off focusing on youth, at least for now.
