Atlanta Hawks Have Backcourt of the Future in Trae Young & Kevin Huerter

After a memorable final game of the regular season in 2018, the Atlanta Hawks came away with three first-round picks in the 2018 NBA Draft.

All Hawks fans know what happened in the top 5 of the draft, as Hawks GM Travis Schlenk made a massive decision to pass on Luka Doncic in favor of Trae Young. While the move was widely panned at the time, in recent weeks the move has looked like a win-win, as Luka continues to tear up the NBA and Trae Young has slightly outplayed him over the past 2 months as the best rookie in the NBA.
