player. 125. As mentioned in my previous mock draft, DeAndre Ayton is joining a new wave of unicorns. One interesting note though: he may end up being the best “unicorn” in the league. He can score from anywhere on the court: in the post, from mid-range, from deep. You get the point, <em>anywhere</em>. He has old school talent blended with new-age skills. It’s truly a unique combination.
<p>The Hawks need talent, and Ayton might be the best fit and player for this team. Schroder needs another roll man besides John Collins. Ayton and Collins would make for a dynamic 4-5 combination.</p>
<p>The Hawks also lack star power and a player who people can associate with the franchise. They would have that in Ayton.</p>
<p><em>Percent chance of #1: 25.0</em></p>
<p><em>Alternative pick: Luka Doncic</em></p>. C. University of Arizona. DeAndre Ayton. 1
