With the 2021 NBA Draft in the books, we are now armed with the information of where Auburn basketball stars Sharife Cooper and JT Thor will be headed in the pros.

Both will stay relatively local, as Thor was selected at the #35 pick and later traded to the Charlotte Hornets by the Detroit Pistons and Sharife Cooper will head back to his home city of Atlanta to play for the Hawks after being taken with the #48 pick.
