Atlanta has acquired New Orleans No. 4 pick in the draft for No. 8 and 17 and 35, league sources tell ESPN. Pelicans are sending Solomon Hill, No. 57 pick and a future second-round pick.

Edit: Looks like Atlanta is going after Hunter

Quote
Atlanta is pursuing Virginia's DeAndre Hunter with the No. 4 pick, league sources tell ESPN. Atlanta GM Travis Schlenk makes a big move in lottery second year in a row to get his man. Last year, it was Trae Young. This time, DeAndre Hunter.

I thought they would only trade that pick for a star player?

I mean that is what many poster proclaimed!

Hill was a 12 million dollar expiring, does this give pels cap room?

Stick a pin in this one. We could have beaten this offer.

I think Atlanta have been incredibly managed the last few years.

Yes, they have room for a max now, I believe.

With Hunter going #4, I wonder where Garland falls? Could the C's somehow get him?

If Atlanta is going after Hunter, I don't think this is the best trade for them. I don't see Hunter as being much more valuable than everyone else in the 5-15 range.

[dang], there goes my hopes of four. The kings blew it for us this year with that pick. The one year they almost make the playoffs is when the pick was due. Figures. No chance in us beating that without throwing in a Smart or Brown. 14 pick is too far back...[dang] lottery.

1) why would we want hill contract?

2) 8,17&35 greater than 14, 20 & 51(prolly even 22)

And Is #4 in this draft such a great thing?

Cavs will take Garland. Guaranteed.
