@hornets247
In post workout interview, Dell made it a point to say that he wants best player REGARDLESS of position

?@Jim_Eichenhofer
Dell Demps said Anthony Davis will probably visit New Orleans at some prior to the draft in next few weeks

@GerrityJoe
Jeremy Lamb made it very clear that he didn't shoot well in the workout. Dell said he won't look too much at one day's on-court performance.

@hornets247
John Henson on how he would envision it working out if he and Davis were drafted together, "Uh, a lot of blocked shots" #LengthLengthLength

@GerrityJoe
Dell Demps said he still won't commit to Anthony Davis. Said he has to do "due dilligence". His eyes can't lie quite like his mouth.

I sure hope he means position and not actual players.......Maryland's Stoglin...

@GerrityJoe
Monty Williams called Austin Rivers "Dennis the Menace:. Said his sister is the best athlete in the family. #MontyBurn

@hornets247
Tyler Zeller astutely points out that he played very well next to John Henson- a poor man's version of Anthony Davis

Terence Jones said today that #Unibrow is a very humble guy and he would relish the opportunity to play with him again in NOLA

Monty singing the praises of Austin Rivers right now while Michael Jackson's Pretty Young Thing blares in the background

@Jim_Eichenhofer
Demps said to expect next Hornets draft workout to take place in about 2 weeks. There are Chicago and Europe combines in the interim

@GerrityJoe
Monty Williams reaffirmed that Gordon wants to be in Nola, and that he's getting sick of the questions. Gordon is in Nola watching/working

Monty is complaining that some agents aren't letting players be available for workouts. Says they're not working for the players.

?@hornets247
Monty admits that he never heard of Arnett Moultrie before this process, but was highly impressed with him today

Monty calls drafting two bigs "a real possibility"

Monty won't say specific names of guys who "backed out" of working out for the Hornets, so I will: MKG, Beal, Drummond

?@wwltvsports
Monty said there was no rhyme or reason as to why todays group came for workouts. Said the agents are making it hard to get players in

MKG and Beal will be gone by 10, so no biggy. I hope this ensures that Drummond eats farts elsewhere.

Was listening to the radio today and Monty was really high on Moultrie. He said he was embarrassed that he didn't really know anything about him, but that he thought the guy was really, really good.

Someone tweeted, that they expect Lillard in at some point, but it seems like it'll be closer to the draft, after the chicago combine and euro showcase

The next set of in town workouts will be about a week before the draft. They will be preoccupied with the Chicago Combine and then the International Combine.

I imagine they will bring in Lillard, Marshall, Jones, Waiters, white, etc.

Terrance Jones intrigues me if he can fit at the 3.

I think T Jones projects nicely as an NBA 3.

?@GerrityJoe 1st impressions- Zeller seems really smart/willing 2 work. Didnt seem overly impressed with Anthony Davis. "he only scored 5 pts against us"


Probably wasn't overly impressed when this happened either:

Monty and Dell don't seem to think so as they worked him out with the PF/Cs.

I'm not sure where they are working out the SFs. I saw "bigs" in one group and "guards" in the other group. I would say T Jones is a big SF. Can probably get minutes at both 3 and 4, so obviously he'll work out in the "bigs" group.
