I don’t think Charlotte would have been good to him. Something that often goes unnoticed is how being on a dysfunctional franchise early in your career can wreck your ability to keep learning how to compete, as you become complacent and motivated by personal success. That in turn can shorten your career, as you don’t have a strong incentive to improve your skills while you can still get by on physical talent.Honestly? I wish the trade to Charlotte would have stuck. Not because I like Charlotte, but I think DK would have gotten to have solid minutes, be appreciated, and grow in a smaller market. And then he could cash in during his second contract in free agency.
