You will never guess which NBA team I'm rooting for tonight to win the Zion lottery or otherwise known as the 2019 NBA Draft Lottery. Ever since last season when the Atlanta Hawks traded away Luka Doncic draft rights to Dallas for Trae Young and a protected 1st round draft pick I have dreamed about Youtube sensation Zion Williamson in a Hawks red uniform. Zion is the biggest polarizing superstar to enter the draft since Lebron. He's a marketing dream and also a franchise turning player.
The Hawks have a roughly 10% chance of winning the #1 pick. If there is a basketball God they will let Atlanta finally get the chance to draft the best overall player. Fuck Cleveland and fuck New York. You guys don't deserve Zion. Atlanta wants Zion. Atlanta needs Zion. Team him up with Trae and John Collins and you are looking at an Eastern Conference contender immediately. Convince free agent Kevin Durant to play in the hip hop capital of the world and you are looking at a top 5 favorite next season.
Sweet baby Jesus give me Zion in Atlanta. Do it.
