Front right rotor sticking while turning

Hi, took front tires off today and spun the rotors by hand, left side spins nicely and the right hand side has a sticking point, almost like a 4 stroke motor hitting the compression stroke, I assume this is not normal, any ideas on what it might be or where to start looking would be great. Its a 2009 3500 megacab 4 wheel drive
Thanks
