Atlanta Hawks Score Big in Draft Trade: Eighth Overall Pick and Future Gold
The Atlanta Hawks struck gold in a draft trade with the New Orleans Pelicans, securing the eighth overall pick in the 2026 draft and an unprotected first-round pick from the Pelicans. The Pelicans, desperate to secure Derik Queen, traded up to grab him, but their move backfired as Queen didnt click with Zion Williamson. Meanwhile, the Hawks snagged Asa Newell, a project player showing promise. Hawks fans are thrilled, as the trade looks like a steal, and the team is building a formidable squad with young talent. The real prize is still to come, as the eighth overall pick could be a game-changer for the Hawks.
