2024 NBA Mock Draft #3

[The Midnight]

In three years the Hawks will be kicking themselves if they don’t take Sarr, so as their conscience and quality control Atlanta, you’re welcome the Atlanta Hawks take Alexandre Sarr

FWIW if I were the Hawks I wouldn’t take Sarr #1.

I mean what’s his best case? Deandre Ayton?

That’s hardly franchise changing.

I’d rather take a flyer on Castle. He seems to have the drive to be a franchise player.

I’d say his ceiling is Evan Mobley. They don’t need Castle. They have two pg’s that will probably end up better and they want to trade one of them so what’s the point?

Trey isn’t a winner.

Murray doesn’t fit their timeline.

They need to blow it up if I’m honest.

Ship both out and start over.

Washington takes Cody Williams at #2. He'll play on the wing next to Coulibaly and can handle enough to take the ball out of Jordan Poole's hands.

You’ve heard of the trading down concept haven’t you?

Oh, we can do trades? Okay, I'll delete my post. The #2 pick is on the market for the next 20 minutes. I'm looking to move back to #4 or #5. I'd like a young prospect or future FRP. Are either of you game, @Saint Cy of JFC or @Elizah Huge ?

@sip is up with Houston

Actually, I'm trying to trade the #2 pick. Give me 15 mins.

No

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

No interest in trading up to two from Spurs.

Okay, time's up. Cody Williams goes #2.

Risacher doesn't have enough playmaking or self-creation to make me want to take him that high.
I don't think Clingan has top-5 upside either.
I worry about Castle's ability to shoot and beat defenders off the dribble.
Sheppard doesn't get to the rim enough to be my lead guard, though I like him as a player.
I like Avdija more than Buzelis.

I like it. I do think someone will go top 4 who hasn't been mocked there recently

The rockets go with Reed Shephard at 3.
