A chance for the Hawks’ rebuilding efforts to really pay off.
Hawks’ representatives were dressed and ready for a potentially franchise altering NBA draft lottery held Tuesday at the Chicago Hilton.
Best case scenario, the Hawks get the No. 1 and No. 9 overall picks in the June 20 NBA draft. No. 1 would be an almost certain selection of Duke freshman sensation Zion Williamson, considered by most with huge potential at the NBA level.
Co-owner Jami Gertz, and wife of principal owner Tony Ressler, will represent the Hawks on stage for the big reveal, after the process was conducted under heavy security and secrecy at the hotel.
