The Atlanta Hawks very well could control the direction of the draft at No. 3 as they zero in on either selecting Luka Doncic, or trading the slot to a team looking to move up to select him.

"Teams know this right now, they have to get to No. 3 to get Luka Doncic," said Adrian Wojnarowski on ESPN's Wednesday evening draft coverage.

"Dallas at No. 5 has been knocking at that door," added Wojnarowski.

The Orlando Magic and even the Denver Nuggets also have interest in trading up for Doncic, according to Wojnarowski.

If the Hawks trade down, they could target Trae Young.



They're pulling a real life KOC troll :o

You see the video I made? Been doing scouting reports (written + video on my site), but started putting the videos on Frankie Vision with way better visuals. Looks like DX’s old stuff.

I'll leave it up to Perry.

I really believe Wendell Carter Jr will be better than Bamba. Would be disappointed if we lost Frank and took on salary just for Mo.

Stop the Bamba hype!

I've never seen a guy shoot 68% from the FT line and 27% from 3 get so much love for his "shot."

He is a VERY slow leaper. He blocked shots mostly by camping out in the paint because there is no 3 seconds rule. He rarely blocked shots because of instincts or athleticism. In fact, he was often beat by guys in the paint because he had to start his leap early because he is such a slow leaper and guys get him off balance so easily. And to don't want to see his second leap...

For all of the praise he gets for his intelligence off the court, he rarely showed any of it ON the court. This is not a high basketball IQ player. He processes the game slowly.

He had a very low usage rate with a high turnover rate. This is a terrible combination and is a red flag.

He is old for his class and will be turning 21. Not all freshmen are equal.

I really didn't think Mikal would be on the board @ 9 when the season ended, but here we are. With the Cavs targeting the PG's, it's looking very likely unless Chicago pulls the upset and picks him. Would love that core and also adding a 2019 top 6 pick?

Yes please.
