The 2023 NBA Draft is tonight and Channel 2 is your home for all the picks! ABC will air the draft live from New York City starting at 8 p.m.
Not since LeBron James 20 years has one player received so much draft hype and expectations than Victor Wembanyama. The 7-foot-5 French player arrived in New York and will hear his name called first when the draft begins with lottery winner San Antonio Spurs.
As for the Hawks, they are on the clock at No. 15 and No. 46 overall.
Before you think they won’t find anyone who can take the team to the next level, remember that Kawhi Leonard and Giannis Antetokounmpo went No. 15 overall in their respective drafts.

Last year at No. 16, the Hawks selected Duke forward A.J. Griffin, who averaged nearly 10 points per game during his rookie campaign. What are the Hawks thinking this year?
“We’re comfortable. With the draft, in the spectrum of possibilities, I think that’s most likely what happens, picking at 15,” general manager Landry Fields said. “But we’re still looking at options to move up or some options where if we want to move back. We do feel like, I guess the word is strong, but I think there’s a lot of depth there.”
For those who can’t make it to New York, the Hawks will host a watch party at State Farm Arena starting at 8 p.m. Fans who attend will be able to watch the draft on the jumbotron. The party will feature DJ Chika Takai, Harry the Hawk, and the Flight Crew.
Tickets are available on a first-come, first-serve basis with all proceeds going to the Atlanta Hawks Foundation.
