KB21, your boys at Thestepien seem to like Future Atlanta Hawk Zion Williamson

[GThawks3]

Probably my dream scenario right now (could change)

1. Hawks — Zion Williamson, Forward, Duke

Age: 18.4 | Height: 6-7 | Weight: 285

Williamson’s teammate RJ Barrett started the season as the top prospect on our Big Board, but if things continue apace, there’s a good chance he’ll be displaced Williamson himself. The 6-7 forward has been phenomenal to start the season, averaging 27.5 points, 11.5 rebounds, 3.5 blocks and 3.0 assists per contest through two games.

At just 18 years old, Williamson possesses unmatched athleticism, an impressively high basketball IQ and the ability to generate efficient offense even without a consistent jumper. Pairing him with Trae Young in Atlanta would be a joy.

7. Hawks (via Mavericks) — Romeo Langford, Wing, Indiana

Age: 19.1 | Height: 6-7 | Weight: 202

Atlanta could potentially hold two top-10 selections next June, putting the Hawks in position to quickly rebuild a depleted roster. Langford’s off to a slow start from behind the arc, but he has historically appeared to be a projectable shooter for the NBA level. He’d give the Hawks another perimeter scoring threat.

Save me a seat on the bus.

[Sothron]

Could that Bol Bol kid fall to #6 or wherever the Mavs would pick?

It’s possible. Some say top 4 or 5.

[NBASupes]

I think Bol will be top 5. Has to be, too rare

I don’t know. Dude seems like he’s more hype than anything.

He does look good, but his weight/frame really worries me. I doubt he can put on as much weight as even Porzingis and Bamba can. Maybe he can play the four and it just won't matter, I don't know.

Bol Bol = Hasheem Thabeet

Freakishly tall players get hurt sooner or later, it's risky.

really? That's not a comparison I thought I'd see. Why do you think that?

I think he's a comp to Embiid like Anthony Bennett was a comp to Lebron.

Pass.  Let somebody else make that mistake.

Langford (Indiana vs 24 Marquette) is on FS1 right now having a good all around game. Really uses that near 7’ wingspan well with his layups, passes, and defense. Gave his team an early spark on a run against a ranked team.

He is big time. He honestly feels like the perfect SG next to Trae.

Cam is still my favorite prospect, really want him in a Hawk uni when all is said and done. Also, i'm not a fan of Bol Bol at all. I'd avoid him honestly

I was with you on this last year but have you seen his work recently? Dude is picking up unicorn ? Porzingis type moves...at his size it could be real nice.

[GameTime]

Sign me up on Romeo Langford. Game is so smooth for his age. Kinda reminds me of Harden coming out of ASU.

Bol is fool's gold, spud.

Ooh, ooh look he's 7ft tall and he shoots fadeaway 3's!!!!!

Get into the nuts n bolts of his game (i.e. the stuff that contributes to wins, not necessarily stats).  You won't find any.

He's an Orlando-type pick.
