What is the story about?
The Hawks came into Sunday afternoon with a slightly greater than 40% chance at turning their Pelicans-Bucks superpick into gold. Unfortunately, they didn’t strike it rich.
The ping pong balls bounced the other way this time.
No. 8 happened to be the most likely landing spot with around a 30% shot at ending there. Atlanta’s hopes of getting any of AJ Dybantsa, Darryn Peterson, or Cam Boozer are surely done for, but they can still end up with a solid choice of instant impact players.
The NBA Draft will
be held on June 23 and June 24, and the Hawks are slated to have three picks.
