Hawks Likely to Stash Late Picks Overseas
Brad Penner-USA TODAY SportsWith picks #50 and #59, the Atlanta Hawks selected Sweden's Marcus Eriksson and Greece's Dimitrios Agravanis. Both players will be watched overseas in 2015-16.
The Atlanta Hawks used the pick acquired in the Lou Williams trade from last summer to select Marcus Eriksson with the 50th pick and then took an additional international prospect in Dimitrios Agravanis with the 59th pick. Neither player is expected to be ready to play in the NBA in the next two seasons but both players have skills that could eventually lead them into an NBA rotation.
