Atlanta Hawks to work out Justin Jackson, Luke Kornet this week

The Atlanta Hawks have had draft workouts with Texas’ Jarrett Allen and North Carolina’s Nate Britt already this week. Per Chris Vivlamore of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, the team will be working out Vanderbilt stretch big Luke Kornet on Thursday and on Friday, they will be working out another Tar Heel in Justin Jackson.

Jackson is a projected lottery pick in the 2017 NBA Draft. He was the ACC Player of the Year averaging 18.3 points per game in leading UNC to a national title. With a good, natural shooting stroke and slashing ability, Jackson separates himself as one of the better wing scorers in the draft.
