2018 NBA Draft: Oklahoma PG Trae Young drafted by Dallas Mavericks with No. 5 overall pick, traded to Atlanta

Former Oklahoma Sooners and Norman North High School phenom Trae Young doesn’t necessarily have the look of a prototypical lottery pick, but that’s exactly what he is after being selected No. 5 overall in the 2018 NBA Draft. Atlanta technically selected Luka Doncic at No. 3, but the Hawks and Mavericks have traded picks 3 and 5, with ATL acquiring Young in the process. No current NBA players appear to be involved in the deal.

Atlanta and Dallas have agreed to a deal, league sources tell ESPN. They'll trade Nos.
