The NBA draft’s premier prize typically comes at the steep cost of sacrificing a team's dignity and revenue. If I was told the Hawks were destined to pick #1 9 months ago, I’d assume something went horribly wrong. But for once, one of the unluckiest NBA teams finally got blessed.
The Atlanta Hawks have a chance to completely change the trajectory of the franchise, starting with their decision on what to do with the #1 pick. In part 1 of this series, we'll thoroughly explore 5 prospects I believe the Hawks will consider at #1, breaking down their games and potential fit in Atlanta.

Been following you on Twitter for a while and agree with most of your takes. Great video and keep up good work!
preciate you tapping in 🤝🏽
Really great video man. Thank you. You really broke this down from what I feel like any long term fan of the franchise out there could appreciate. This actually made me feel better lol
we’re in a good spot finally 🤝🏽 appreciate you taking the time to watch my video l
The Atlanta Hawks will select Alexandre Starr.
Isaiah Crawford > Zaccharie Risacher
hell no 😭
The Hawks had better take Alex Saar! ZR is a bust!
they're in the same tier no cap
No. The pick is Sarr. Need an agile big man presence defensively. Defense wins championships
Exceptionally produced video, cheers man!
thank you!!
Love ur vids! Keep grinding. Your good at this
Appreciate you!!
This is my first time coming across this channel, I'm less than five minutes into this video and I know this is a must follow channel. The flow of information, film breakdown and overall knowledge is elite. You have a follower for life and a fellow Hawk fan, please keep the content coming.
Can't explain how much joy it brings me to read this. Thank you for your appreciation, got a lot of stuff in the works!!
What a breakdown!! I thoroughly appreciate the time and effort you put into this!
That means the world, than you for taking the time to watch!
GREAT VIDEO! Love this content. 🙏🙏
thank you!!
I'll cry if they don't take Sarr
you and me both
It does concern me that Sarr mostly views himself as a 4, if Sarr either don’t become this 3 level scorer or if he does not learn the dirty details of being a center. He has bust potential.
Great video, fam 🙏🏿 Appreciate the hard work that went into it. I like Sarr, but I think Holland is interesting too.
happy to hear you enjoyed 🙏🏽 holland my guy
Excellent video my dude
Thank you for watching 🙏🏽
Great work man! I agree with the analysis. Sarr is my choice for #1 also.
Thank you!
When Mike Muscala is your best 2nd round pick ever(?)
Mouhamed Gueye will take that title soon
This is elite content man. Small channel for now but you’re for sure gonna blow up soon.
all in due tome hopefully, i appreciate you bro
Followed! This is high-end Hawks content. Reliving those Billy Knight drafts was brutal.
Thank you! It's been a rough couple decades
@@dlee4three11 no doubt!
Great vid bro!
thank you!!
This the best video I’ve seen on this subject. Got it right for sure
I do not think you can draft any of the second or third tier players that you talked about and go into yet another year with a center rotation of Clint and Okongwu. This is the Hawks chance to get that new wave big that’s starting to take over the league and I don’t see how passing on him should even be a thought… that being said, as you mentioned in the first part of the video, Hawks haven’t exactly made great choices aside from Jalen Johnson so getting the first pick just makes me wonder how they gonna f this one up 😂
appreciate you, and i agree that Sarr is cut from that same versatile big archetype.
Amazing Breakdown Vid
thank you!!
W VIDEO KEEP IT UP ‼️‼️
preciate you!!
What a great video! Glad I found it on Reddit
happy you took the time to watch!
Let’s go 30+ minute video 🎉🎉❤❤❤

You put effort in this video is a very quality video. Good job
thank you!!
Fantastic video man. You gotta start posting more fr
thank you fr 🙏🏽 I’m working on it fs, the way this video has been received got me super motivated
@@dlee4three11You got the content and breakdowns figured out bro. Just push through the highs and lows and you’ll make it!
This video is 🔥🔥🔥
bless 🙏🏽
Quality video!
Good video clear and concise
thank you ron holland
This is on point. They need to finally make the right move
the future of the franchise hinges on their decision
@@dlee4three11 I could not agree more. Nobody appreciate what Trae has done and continues to bring to this team. That said, I am not afraid to move on from him. While not more talented offensively, I believe that DJ is a better leader of men.
Just subbed. Hawks are back.
Talk!!
Appreciate you fr
Nice video!
appreciate you!
I think any of these guys would be a good pick. And with 2-5 you can trade down and still get a good pick and someone else. I think everyone is going to be a great fit on offense so the priority should be helping Atlanta on defense and thinking about getting someone who can face Embiid, Giannis, Porzingis in the playoffs. Personally I think trading Sarr down for Clingan and getting someone like Kispert and Kuzma from the Wizards would be a great move.
Honestly us not having picks for 2-3 years I would give dejaunte back to the spurs for 4&8 and one of our picks back
i don’t think the spurs would be interested in that deal much, especially if they like any of the point guards in this draft
This video is fire
preciate you 🤝🏽
Here from twitter. Good content
🐐
If they don't take Sarr, they wanna lose and I will boo them for the rest of the season.
there's a way to rationalize other selections (mostly clingan and/or ron) imo, but i lean sarr rather heavily
You got me jazzed about comparing Hollland and Sarr
love both their games
The Atlanta Hawks will select Alexandre Starr. Not need to overthink it. He can play the 5 or 4.
Also, the Atlanta Hawks has another 2024 1st Round Draft Pick and a 2024 2nd Round Draft Pick. With those two additional picks, the Hawks could draft a rookie Point Guard a rookie Power Forward.
Are you sure cause I believe the Hawks only have one pick this year.
@@smootheasy7938 nah. They have another 2024 1st Round Draft Pick and a 2024 2nd Round Draft Pick.
We only have #1 this year and we don't have a 2nd this year either
Yeah ZR screams Deandre Hunter for me. I would much rather know that Clingan can anchor a defense, get boards and is a great passer for his size. Regardless of who is the pick, hawks are short on forwards and for a draft filled with questions and projections, Clingan is about a sure thing as you can get. Prefer in a trade down but still a great player.
The hawks haven't been in the finals in Atlanta...they haven't won since 58 in another city state...they haven't been in the finals since the 50's

TRAE . BI . JJ . SARR . OO is a great starting lineup if u ask me
agreed although against certain matchups that lineup doesn’t have a strong enough guard defender who can navigate screens and keep up with quicker players
Like the video but two things I think you're off on: 1) this draft isn't seen as stacked with great role playing starters, it's viewed as weak because it lacks superstars who would usually be taken top-3 AND other high-floor guys who at worst should be nice starters and might often be taken top-10 as a result. Guy like Sarr only has flashes on offense and you're guessing wildly about whether or not he'll get there, guy like Holland simply can't shoot now and won't be able to play much if he can't. Both might work out but no one would be surprised if they're not starters in 3 years, just more uncertainty about even the project good role players this year. And 2) it's a logical fallacy that every draft has some good to great players in it, there's no reason that this draft has a Giannis or Gobert in it just because the last draft that was weak at the top did. Version of the monte carlo fallacy--you're not 'due' for a good player at some point just because the good players probably aren't coming at the top. This draft might easily have a lotto that flops like 2013 did and a post-lotto like 2015 where the entire 45 post-lotto picks had like 1-2 decent starters in it.
I pointed out other drafts as proof all-star/solid starter level talent exists in every draft, not that this draft has a player the caliber of Giannis and Gobert. I'd argue Castle, Knecht and Clingan are all high-floor prospects who should be lotto picks that can play from day 1. Strewn throughout this draft are a ton of guys I think will complement a lot of teams nicely, whether they're starting or not.
@@dlee4three11 that last part is a better argument than how I interpreted your point . I'll take back the second criticism if your point was based on your evals of individual players and not just on the fact that very draft MUST have some good players just cuz (though your first sentence here seems to stand by that point). I'd still argue that you might be underestimating how unpredictable the draft always is--most of the players who are drafted every year as 'solid starting-level role players' don't become that (or at least not quickly), and some players who aren't seen as likely to become that often do. It's just really really hard to predict translation to the specific NBA game, and it's almost impossible to have any insight into development in like 2.5+ years. In this case I definitely don't think Knecht or Castle are totally fail-proof players who will at minimum be very good rotation players, still think both have at least a 1/3 or so chance of being worse than that. And do you think the Hawks would be happy with the outcome and their use of the asset if their pick was just a solid 7th man? I can respect that if so but it doesn't sound quit right.
Bro, you're one of the first guys out there I have seen out there hyping up Ron Holland like I feel he deserves. Im a Hawks fan and Sarr is a safe pick but depending on how other organizations view Holland, I really would love them trading back and taking him. Some mock drafts are ridiculous and have him going almost out of the lottery. I don't get it.
Hey I’ve learned a lot from your presentation
love to hear that
Am I crazy to think Sarr gives Bam vibes defensively? Obviously isn’t the same frame, but the lateral movement and weak-side help potential is obvious
definitely not crazy at all, especially the lateral quickness. he shares a lot of the switchable traits bam displays
I think we should draft Sarr, then trade DJ back to the spurs for there #3 and a 2025 pick.....and get Matas Buzelis....
That all depends on how the Spurs evaluate the guards at the top of the draft (Reed, Rob, Topic, Collier) honestly. I think they’re more likely to take one of them
If it ain’t Sarr we riot lol
Prepare to hear a ton of speculation behind the selection
ngl if they put alex sarr at sf i feel like it would be nice
would finally have enough size in the starting lineup
I really really like your intro. BUT you sped through the names of the guys. Si wanted you to slowly start getting into the details of all those picks from 2000. 😊. Ok Your description of Sarr is first class
It’s funny you said that, I had a longer version of the intro i cut down to make the video a bit more concise. There are even more examples of draft misses in the Hawks history. I appreciate the feedback, I’ll definitely keep that in mind.
Aura man dropped
Sarr reminds me of lively with higher offensive upside
fair comp imo
It's hard to just trade trae murray johnson capela hunter bogey and okongwu....blowing it up seems impossible....
and the wrong move imo
Jalen Williams went 12 we didn’t have the 13t pick that year
Pointed out Mo Gueye draft selection = you know Hawks basketball. Instant like and sub from me ‼️🤝🫡
love Mo, i think the selection was heavily slept on but he has massive potential. might drop a vid on him once the finals are over.
Thoughts on Tyler Smith? Especially relative to Ron and Matas? He personally reminds me of Jabari Smith Jr tbh
I love Tyler and he's the ideal modern NAB 4 imo. 6'10, can space the floor (already proven shooter from NBA range), bouncy and athletic in the open court and decent weakside rim protector. He's not the defender Jabari is, especially in space, but I think he's a top 15 prospect in this class honestly.
@@dlee4three11 I'm with you on definitely a lotto talent and not being the same defensive prospect as Jabari but mostly wanted to stress the point that he's so slept on relative to Ron and Matas
In my personalnopinion sarr clingan and risacher will all have similar impact
I'm not a hawks fan, but I do have an opinion on what might be the best move for the hawks. Honestly, I think Sarr is by far the best player in this draft. The problem is as you suggested he isn't of the caliber to build a winning team around. The hawks already have a decent and experienced team. They have Jalen Johnson and Capela and Okongwu in the post. They have one of the best backcourts that simply has underperformed so far in my opinion. What they need is a lock down wing defender that can act as a connector or glue guy.
If I were The Hawks, I would trade the number 1 pick and perhaps hunter to the Pistons for Ausar Thompson, the number 5 pick and players to match up the money. Ausar who played and lived in Atlanta in his OTE days would fit perfectly into the team structure of the Hawks. He and Murray would solidify the defense and Tre can do his offensive thing with support from Murray and Bey.
Nah. Atlanta Hawks will definitely sign Alexandre Starr
big overpay for Ausar, as much as I like him. also DJ just isn't the defender we thought he was sadly
I think the catch is sarr himself doesn't want to be drafted to ATL
Weekly uploads coming soon?
Will be much more consistent since it’s summer 🙏🏽
@@dlee4three11 let’s go I’m starting to get In basketball advanced stats more and these vids are like lectures to help me understand it better
@@dlee4three11 just finished the vid… amazing (no glazin)
Trade1st and second round pick with spurs for 4+8 get Ron Holland and Kel'el ware or Cody Williams
i don't see the spurs wanting sarr enough to give up both 1sts
@@dlee4three11 with wemby and Trae I do gonna need to blocker with Trae defense it can be Tim and David all over and can get a PG 13 or Klay Thompson in Free agency go win now while wemby on rookie contract and Pop old the classic spurs way foreign big men
Go Hawks Go to #1
Go hawks!!
They really traded pau lol
Ron holland 1st would be major bust pick
He's my favorite player in the class so I admit some bias but I don't see him being a bust at all. Unreal motor + athleticism + scoring & playmaking upside in a NBA frame
@@dlee4three11 i like his game too and if picked anywhere from 4th-14th he will likely be successful without much immediate pressure. But at 1-3, especially at 1, i think he would be a reach pick and it could stunt his growth as superstar expectations from media and fans would come into play. If hawks dont take alex sarr at 1, or move down a few picks for holland or whoever, Landry fields should be fired
I was really up on Mastas but he compares to Jalen johnson
that's not necessarily a bad thing
Donavan clingan
IS ZACH EDEY POSSIBLE?
I became a hawks fan in 2015. Team basketball was beautiful until Lebron happened. If it was not for that plumber championship, there is a case that the Atlanta hawks are one of if not the worst ran/operated nba franchises in history.
Should have never got read of Lucka Atlanta's dumb for that
Of all the drafts in modern history, this might be the safest year to bet on finding a proven superstar over a raw prospect.
Couple the #1 pick with Trae Young and there's a lot of possibilities for acquiring a franchise player that open up.
