This year, the Atlanta Hawks selected Kobe Bufkin with the 15th overall pick. The guard out of Michigan last season averaged 14 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2.9 assists, and 1.3 steals per game. Bufkin also shot very well, shooting 48.2% FG, 35.5% 3PT, and 84.9% FT.
With the Atlanta Hawks ranking in the middle of the league in bench points, Bufkin looks to be a great scoring addition to the bench unit. Bufkin looks to be in line to get guard duties off the bench this upcoming season as he will be able to relieve Trae Young and Dejounte Murray.
