The Atlanta Hawks on Sunday won the 2024 NBA draft lottery for the right to select the No. 1 overall pick on June 27. Defying the odds, Atlanta entered with only a 3% chance to land the top pick. The Washington Wizards, Houston Rockets and San Antonio Spurs rounded out the top four. The Hawks finished 36-46 last season, making the play-in tournament but failing to advance in the postseason. They ranked fifth in the league in points per game but struggled mightily on the defensive end.
The 2024 NBA Draft is regarded as one of the worst in recent memory. Most prognosticators do not see a superstar-level talent among the pool of prospects, however there are many players with potential to help turn around a franchise. One option is Alex Sarr, a forward/center for the Perth Wildcats who stands at 7-foot-1 with a 7-foot-4½-inch wingspan and 9-foot-2½-inch standing reach.
