Atlanta Hawks 2019 Offseason Grades: Trading Omari Spellman to Warriors

Omari Spellman was the final pick of the first round in the 2018 NBA Draft, which saw the Atlanta Hawks select him, Trae Young at #5 overall and Kevin Huerter at #19 overall.

The latter two of those picks have looked like heists for Hawks General Manager Travis Schlenk, while the selection of Spellman at #30, while a promising choice, did not quite work out the same way.

When Spellman was selected, there was a fair amount of head-scratching and hand-wringing from draftniks and Hawks fans.
