Special Draft Could Lift Bulls and Hawks in 1976
Chicago Bulls and Atlanta Hawks, the NBA’s weakest teams last season, stand to gain most from a dispersal draft adding ABA clubs Kentucky and Utah to the NBA for 1976-77. Chicago and Atlanta will pick 1st and 2nd, with Artis Gilmore and Moses Malone as likely selections. The merger expands the league to 22 teams, with the draft order based on last season’s records.
