Zuby Ejiofor, the 23rd overall pick in the NBA draft and Atlanta Hawks’ newest star, is donning jersey number 20 — a historic number for the franchise — as he steps into his rookie season. After wearing 24 in high school and college, he’s now joining a select group of Hawks players who’ve worn the number, including Georges Niang. His standout college career earned him Big East Player and Defensive Player of the Year honors, with elite stats across scoring, rebounding, assists, and blocks. He also impressed in summer league action, averaging 13 points and 9 rebounds, including a monster 19-15 performance. The Hawks are thrilled to have him, seeing him as a key piece ready to make an immediate impact.
