    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Vanderbilt G Derrick Byars had fallen all the way down to the second round of tonight?s draft, but the Hornets decided not to trade up, and instead selected Iowa G Adam Haluska with the 43rd pick overall after Byars had been taken just one pick earlier. Haluska averaged 20.5 ppg last season at Iowa, and shot 40% from the field. In three years at Iowa, Haluska has started 98 games and averaged a total of 16.1 ppg.</div>Check out the full article at HornetsNews.com!

    Haluska is probably not going to do much for this team. He won't be able to play solid defense because of his slow feet, and we know what Scott thinks about that. He'll probably be another Arvydas Macijauskas, which would be too bad because we need somebody that can step in.

    Lil bit of Haluska:20 PPG 4.6 RPG [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]He's a spot-up jumpshooter and runs pretty well to get open. Might work out.
