The Atlanta Hawks may try to move down from their top pick and draft UConn center Donovan Clingan in the 2024 NBA Draft.CLEVELAND, Ohio —In a press conference a week before the draft Atlanta Hawks general manager Landry Fields told media members he was fielding calls but“ Clingan remains one of their top choices,” O’Connor writes. “But I’m told that the Hawks would ideally prefer to trade down to take the 7-foot-2 sophomore center, rather than do so with the first choice.
“He’d be a more advanced option than any of the ball-screen partners Trae has had before,” O’Connor writes. “And as an excellent interior defender with a massive 7-foot-7 wingspan, he could help the Hawks build the best defense they’ve ever had.”Here’s why Kenny Atkinson could be the right coach for the Cavs – Terry Pluto. The French big man, who’s expected to be a top-three pick, reportedly prefers the Washington Wizards, who have the second pick, to the Hawks.
“There’s a lot of young talent coming up in France, and a lot of kids now are playing basketball because of Victor and what he’s doing in the NBA,” Wembanyama’s Mets 92 teammate. “It started with Tony Parker and just growing up and watching what he did in the NBA, it gave me and other players confidence that we could get there too. Now we’re part of that next generation inspiring the young kids in France to chase their dreams.
