    New Orleans is considering Kendall Marshall for their 10th overall pick.

    “Most point guards need to be in the right system,” Hornets Coach Monty Williams said. “You take the ball out of Steve Nash’s hands and make him run the Princeton offense, he won’t average 10 assists a game. I think that’s the case for most point guards, more so for Kendall because he’s not the fastest guy in the world.

    “But he’s crafty, and I think at North Carolina, where he had three or four first-round picks around him, allowed him to be in the system that helped his game.”

    Marshall worked out for the Hornets last Saturday.

    “I think he can play,” Williams said. “He has a nose for the situation; he sees plays before they happen. He’s competitive, and I put him in situations where I wanted him to whine a bit. He didn’t whine at all; he just kept playing.”
