2015 NBA Mock Draft: Chad Ford projects Bobby Portis to the Atlanta Hawks

The 2015 NBA Draft is right around the corner and ESPN.com's Chad Ford has released his latest mock draft and projects Arkansas Power Forward Bobby Portis to the Atlanta Hawks with the No. 15 pick of the first round.

The Hawks finished the season in the bottom third in defensive rebounding. Then in the playoffs, they got absolutely demolished in the paint by the Cavs. They have Al Horford and Pero Antic and not much else. Portis' rebounding and shot-blocking ability, combined with an elite motor and unselfish attitude, should give the Hawks some much-needed size and energy off the bench.
