2018 NBA Draft roundtable: Should the Atlanta Hawks aim to trade up from No. 19 overall?

The 2018 NBA Draft is nearly here and, before it arrives on June 21, the Peachtree Hoops staff gathered in roundtable fashion to answer a few pertinent questions. In the second installment, we ask the panel whether the Atlanta Hawks should aim to trade up from No. 19 overall and, if so, which players should be the target of that kind of move?

Brad Rowland: Absolutely. There is, as always, a cutoff point in which it is no longer worth it to pursue a move up but Atlanta’s assets (including another future 1st-round pick from Cleveland) provide ammunition for a move.
