Jamaaliver, I agree on Edwards going to be a steal. Some body will scoop him up and get a gem.

Horrible to hear the Porter kid apparently re-tore his ACL in rehab. Awful news.

Hate to hear it, although not surprised. His family genetics are very fragile, all 4 siblings have knee/back issues. Damn shame, he’d be a perfect young C for Schlenk-ball, I liked his game a lot.

He’ll reinjure it, it’s in his DNA. His 2 sisters have experienced 2+ knee tears each, his bro has a back issue he reinjured as well. All evidence points to none of them EVER staying healthy, despite their abundant talent.

Hed definitely be worth a swing in the 2nd round. The guy is a nba basketball player, but he’s crazy fragile and in poor shape.

KABENGELE!!!!

Personally I'm confused as to why Kabengele is not in any mock drafts. If he declares he seems like he has to be a late first and on the radar of playoff teams, seems like he's Clint Capela with a workable 3 to me, looking at his FT percentage.

If he somehow stays a secret, I'd take him with that first second.

King Ken ur boy Clarke with 36 and 8!!!! Yikes! I’ll be the first to admit I didn’t think he could ever score 36 in a college game, at least not in the tourney. I didn’t think he had that type of offense.

Hachi was quiet and Clarke went off!

I saw a lot of bad defense in that game. Clarke is a solid player, but he will never see 30+ in the NBA. Hard time believing he will do that again in the tourney.

His defense is legit though. I'm not a fan of the idea of Collins at center, but if you are, Clarke would be a great fit defensively if you can't get Zion.

Little just went on a 2 min tear! Crazy dunk attempt he almost made, got fouled hit 2...then a huge swat and a dunk on the other end.

Having said that, I’m not sold on him. :lol:

The zags have been getting the easiest draws. A 14 loss Baylor shouldn't have been in.

I'm super intrigued with coby white. He's the 2nd ball handler and tough bucket getter the team hasn't had at the 2. Only problem is the size as he looks 6-3.

If we have a later pick in the mid-late first, I would be all over him. His defense is legit.I would be more intrigued to take Jaxson Hayes over him though. He's raw, but at 19 years old, he's got a ton of upside. Clarke is more Jordan Bell to me. That's still a good player. I just think those players are easier to find later, and it can be someone with even more upside. If we can trade up for him, then I pull the trigger on Clarke.

What direction should Hawks go with their lottery picks?
