Summary
Atlanta Hawks strike gold in the NBA Draft with eighth pick Kingston Flemings and surprise late-round steal Zuby Ejiofor — a St. John’s standout who played under Rick Pitino, whose past pupils include Donovan Mitchell, Terry Rozier, and Montrezl Harrell. Ejiofor’s gritty, versatile game fits Atlanta’s need for toughness and size, and with Pitino’s proven developmental magic, he could be the foundation piece that turns this rebuild into reality.
