The 2024 NBA draft is less than a week away and the draft board is beginning to come into focus. While every draft has a certain level of unpredictability, this draft appears to be especially unpredictable considering that there isn't a clear-cut choice for the top pick. Without a top prospect, the draft board will depend heavily on what the Atlanta Hawks decide to do with the number one pick. Thus far, they have been linked to at least three players, including a wildcard that would cause a ripple effect if the Hawks actually picked them. That would certainly make for a more interesting draft, though there seems to be a general idea of who they will pick and how the rest of the first round will actually play out on June 26. Here at Hoops Habit, we have already done two mock drafts, with this third and final mock representing our final predictions of how the first day of the NBA draft will ultimately play out. Now, with that in mind, let's go through and project all 30 first-round picks, starting with the Hawks and who they will select first overall.
