With two picks in the top 10, the Atlanta Hawks could really take a risk with one of these two picks, but at No. 8 there’s an ideal 3-and-D player that would be a great help to this team’s young core – and that’s De’Andre Hunter.
Hunter might not be the sexiest of picks for any team in the top 10, but he’s a good defender and can hit the 3-point shot consistently. Those are traits that will always lead you to find minutes in the NBA. Hunter would be a solid fit for any team that is looking to be competitive.
Hunter is the type of player that every playoff team needs. He’s the type of player that’s going to come in, put in the work and do whatever it takes to help his team win. How could you argue with that?
