#2 Kemba Walker
Kemba Walker was drafted by the Charlotte Hornets back in 2011, and the point guard has slowly developed into one of the NBA's best player's. Walker has averaged at least 20 points in each of his last three seasons, and during the 18/19 campaign, Walker is on track to average more than 25 points per game for the first time in his career.
Overall, the 28-year-old is averaging 25.2 points, 5.7 assists, and 4.2 rebounds per game and Walker looks set to be named to the All-Star team for a third consecutive season.

While the Hornets will be desperate to keep their star player, Walker will become an unrestricted free agent this summer, and the Pelicans may be able to convince Charlotte to part with their point guard. Ultimately, if New Orleans can pull off an unlikely deal for Walker, then the Pelicans will be in a strong position to reach the playoffs.
