They need a rim protector. Plus, he seems like an absolutely tremendous kid.

Yeah he is a nice story but he could of been had if they dropped even further. Most people had him in 20-30 range and he doesn't have any offensive game. I understand the fit with Dallas but still think it is a reach.
 
Celtics should move up and grab Hawk. I'd give up next year's 1-pick to get him. Hawk, Tatum and Brown would make a dynamic backcourt and wings.
 
I heard why Whitmore fell by why has Grady Dick fallen to 13th?

That's fair, but I am not sure there are a to of teams willing to trade up at this point.

I'm on the ESPN page and already I don't even know several of the logos of the teams, and they don't list the name of the teams on the Draft cast so I don't know what is happening. Why did they change all these logos?

EDIT: Pelicans, Orlando, Toronto and Wizards gave me trouble.

Jett Howard apparently showed Orlando something to put him above Dick and Hawkins. That and Dallas traded down and took Lively. They had a lot of holes to fill.

No they didn't, he was a late lottery pick to the late teens in nearly every single mock draft
 
Gradey Dick going to Toronto means that Jordan Hawkins is the best shooter left on the board. Next few teams picking and their ranking last year in 3PM/game:
  • Pelicans - 23
  • Hawks - 26
  • Jazz - 7
  • Lakers - 24
  • Heat - 19
Feels like a really good pick for any of those teams

Hawks really need a shooter to go along the 2 PGs they have in Trae and Murrary. Hopefully they do that and not a combo guard that draft predictions have had. That Boston series showed the need for another shooter.

Great pickup for the Pelicans. Really good fit next to BI, Zion, and CJ. Love Hawkins playing next to scorers who are playmakers.
 
Hawkins Pelicans. Make us proud. Too bad he didn't fall one more spot. He is also the last lottery pick. Congrats! I'm so happy for you.

Looks more like a character on "Glee" than an NBA draft pick.

And there's the Hawkins pick. 15 to New Orleans! Probably the worst team to get picked by, well, maybe orher than Charlotte. The rumor is New Orleans is not a desirable destination.

Going up on the wall!!! Congrats Jordan!
