With no games going on last night in the NBA there were not any changes in positioning from the last edition of the ping-pong chronicles so today’s installment will focus on the Hawks draft positioning and prospects available at Atlanta’s picks.
With only five games remaining this season, Atlanta is firmly entrenched at the top of the NBA Draft Lottery standings, holding the third-worst record in basketball. As Houston has now clinched a playoff berth, the Hawks know for sure that they will have two first-round selections in the 2018 Draft with a possible third first-round pick coming from the Timberwolves, should they also make the postseason.
