I just want two of these guys ! Don’t care who! Just two of these top wings and I’m happy! Reddish and Sekou would be great!

to me our needs are more so stacking up the wing positions particularly the SF spot!

we can worry about center later and maybe grab Noah vonleh in free agency and resign Dedmon 

our guys are interchangeable so having Collins, Spellman, Len, and adding a guy like vonleh and bringing back Dedmon if possible should give us a nice big man rotation.

I've started liking Hayes the more I watch him.  The way he moves at 7 feet is something.  The only way the Hawks draft him if they believe they can develop his shot.  If he can shoot with that defensive potential, he'd be a perfect fit.

I don't know why everybody hates the guy.

I only don't like him at 8 or 10 because I think there will be guys like Sekou who I definitely want over him.  Hayes at 17 sounds fine to me.  He could end up as a non-impact player but he has enough tools and development ahead of him to be enticing as well.

[NBASupes]

I think Hayes is the only center in this class that can become a legit star outside of Bol but he is raw as hell and I rather Sekou

[bleachkit]

Hayes could end up a better shooting DeAndre Jordan. That's kinda nice.

He has mechanical movements. He’s choppy with his strides and body motion. He can’t shoot to save his life in a league where you need to be able to stretch it. 

 

He reminds me of a new gen Joakim. Lotta energy and defense but is that the best fit for Trae and the boys?

I think we are Hayes best fit but he's a 6 for a reason. He will be in the G-League next year and if he's a top 10 pick, that could suck.

Give me a new gen Joakim Noah at 17 all day.  I wanted the Hawks to get Noah badly but he went at 9 instead of our pick at 11.  Horford and Noah instead of Horford and Law could have been sweet.

Yep, I'm ok with Hayes, Bol at #17. 

Wings at 8 and 10.

[NBASupes]

I think Hayes can be better than Noah on offense by a massive margin but not close on defense and not anywhere near the passer. 

I actually think Hayes has shooting potential like Collins. My comparison for Robin Lopez with elite athleticism. 

For Hayes is Robin Lopez with elite athleticism.

Good to know that he is leaning more so to trading the 2nd rounders.
