After months of speculation about where the Hawks might select in the NBA draft, the order is set. Now the speculation can begin about who the Hawks might select.
Following Tuesday’s draft lottery, the Hawks know they will start with five picks – two in the first round at No. 8 and 10 and three in the second round at No. 35, 41 and 44.
General manager Travis Schlenk again left open the very real possibility that the Hawks will make a move with so many assets – including the valuable first-rounders.
“It opens a lot of doors for us with five picks,” Schlenk said.
