It happens after every loss for the Atlanta Hawks.
While some of the banter is, admittedly, sarcastic or tongue-in-cheek, interactions center around the prospect of landing Duke star Zion Williamson. If not Williamson, specifically, there are references to his Duke teammates, R.J. Barrett and Cameron Reddish, but the projected No. 1 overall pick is, by leaps and bounds, the most discussed 2019 NBA Draft prospect among fans of the Hawks and many other NBA teams.
At the moment, it makes perfect sense, especially when viewed through the prism of history. After all, the Hawks currently boast one of the NBA’s worst records and, as a result, project to finish at or near the bottom of the end-of-season standings.
