3. Atlanta Hawks

Biggest Team Need: Uhm, yes. Everything. Anything. 

Dream Selection: Deandre Ayton, F 

The good news for the Atlanta Hawks in this exercise is that they get the player that is arguably the best player in the draft. The bad news is that the Hawks have needs at nearly every position heading into the NBA Draft.

As soon as Deandre Ayton steps foot on the Hawks practice floor, he’ll be the best player on the team. We really don’t know what Ayton ceiling is or could be, so this would be a great snag for the Hawks if this could come to fruition.
