Best passer/defender among the bigs around #32 is Tillman. Considering how it is going so far, he will be probably be picked at #31 (esp. considering he makes sense for Dallas).

I think Okongwu was a good pick, but Atlanta definitely needs to offload some of those centers.

They probably wanted Hayes because of Doumbouya. I highly doubt they want to trade for Ball, and certainly not for the price that would be worth for the Hornets.
I doubt something good can arrive now

ps : no one cares here (obviously) but Hayes has became the highest french pick ever (Ntilikina being the highest at #8 before him). Normally, Wembanyama will probably be our first #1 though, hopefully.

This was a TERRIBLE draft for us not to trade back because Haliburton, Terry and Bey's are still on the board at #10
