42. Onyeka Okungwe

A former Mr. California Basketball and star at USC, Onyeka Okongwu was Atlanta’s 2020 Lottery Pick (Sixth Overall).

Okungwu dealt with a torn labrum early in his career but was healthier by his third season.  Two years ago, the Center had his first double-digit finish in Points per Game, and increased that to 13.4 Points with an RPG of 8.9.

Okuongwu is still a work in progress and could still blossom into one of Atlanta’s next great big men.
