The Charlotte Hornets have selected Kai Jones with the No. 19 overall pick in the NBA Draft.

Charlotte sent the New York Knicks a future first-round pick to secure Jones at No. 19.

ANALYSIS: At 6-foot-11, Jones teased with his athleticism and offensive tools this past season at Texas. He will need to develop his physical strength and add polish to become a high-level NBA player; however, his long-term ceiling is extremely high. At this point in the draft, he might be worth the risk.
