The Hawks don't have a recent track record of drafting "one-and-dones" in the NBA draft, i.e., the players who only competed at the NCAA level for one season. Most of the players the Hawks have picked were either overseas talents or NCAA upperclassmen. John Jenkins played three seasons at Vanderbilt, while Mike Muscala played four seasons at Bucknell. Mike Scott received a medical redshirt and played five at the University of Virginia.
Among the players projected to be picked near the Hawks' 15th pick Thursday, Jerian Grant of the University of Notre Dame has the most experience.
