Blunt91 Posted June 19, 2019 Report Share Posted June 19, 2019 Seems like PJ Washington thinks the impressed the Hawks Chris Kirschner: Kentucky F PJ Washington was in Atlanta this past Friday. He said he got the feeling that the Hawks like him. Someone to watch if they keep pick No. 17. 3 hours ago – via Twitter ChrisKirschner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he is there at 10, you'd have to think he gets a real hard look. It's really hard for me to put an opinion on a guy I haven't seen so I'm not going to say we should or shouldn't....willing to trust Schlenk and the boys. Yup I sure hope so! I still want #8 Reddish #10 Sekou 17# best player available....if Sekou is not there I want either Goga or Brandon Clarke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txsting Posted June 19, 2019 Report Share Posted June 19, 2019 If we stay put, and assuming we want a wing at 8, i'm afraid the choices are going to be down to Hunter, Nas, and Sekou. I think Culver is on a higher tier, and I think somebody will bite on Cam. I hope I'm wrong, because I'm really not okay with that. I guess we would have to pick Hunter in that case. Maybe Sekou at 10 if they really really like him. I don't think we will reach for a big at 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txsting Posted June 19, 2019 Report Share Posted June 19, 2019 If we can't get an NCAA wing we like; maybe we just say "f*** it" and wait to collect that piece on the free agent market when it is time. In that case, pick Sekou and Clarke perhaps (two guys who can defend most any position on the floor), and favorite big at 17. Maybe a backup PG in the second round. My goodness I'm glad I'm not Schlenk right now. It's really difficult to maximize your value when you have so many choices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the same age, definitely Herro. Bear in mind Allen was born in 1995 and Herro in 2000 so Grayson should be better next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NBASupes Posted June 19, 2019 Report Share Posted June 19, 2019 Oh wow! Sekou workout with the Spurs and they loved him. We might have a partner to dance with at 10. 10 for 19/29. This also gives us the legit package of 29/35/41 to possibly move back into the teens. Could 17/18/19 be a reality. I hope so. So many players in that range I really like.

There is a strong belief that if Atlanta passes on him at 10, if Boston don't take him at 14, he will fall to the late teens. His stock is rangy.

This one isn't the best in the world but there is a lot of pick value data and it lines up to the same conclusion: your odds of getting an impact player diminish pretty rapidly as you progress through the first round in the draft. http://82games.com/nbadraftpicks.htm Don't pass on a high upside guy like Sekou. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No but if Schlenk took Sekou at 8 over Cam I'd be fine with it. If he thinks Reddish isn't that great and Sekou will emerge as a star in a few years, I'm good with that based on his track record.

Giving Schlenk the draft benefit of the doubt until he fails us. Happy with Collins Trae and Huerter so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
