Guessing it'll be unpopular here right now but I'd do Sanders straight up for Schroder.
I think we'd then have our PG of the future, Giannis, Henson, and then would take Embiid if he's there where we pick. If we don't get Embiid, we can put Henson at the 5 and find a different 4.
Call it a calculated risk - get your PG locked down, open the door for the best player in the draft in advance (Embiid) (moving Sanders for commensurate value at a position of need), if you can't get him Embiid, you still have a guy who is probably redundant with the guy you're trading anyway (Henson) and you can still draft BPA more or less in the draft, and you have the added bonus of probably weakening yourself for the remaining part of this year by losing Sanders and adding a 19 year old green PG.
The question to me is whether the Hawks would do it.
