USA TODAY Sports

Reports are that the Hawks are trying to trade up in the draft -- but who would be the target if they are

Amidst the NBA Draft rumors that suggest the Hawks are snooping around the options of trading up in this draft are the

questions of who they would be targeting if they do

First the report from Marc Spears of Y Sports that started all the talk

The Hawks have the 17th and 18th first-round selections and the 47th overall in the second round Atlanta

has had trade conversations with at least one team picking in the top five a source said

Now the questions of who they would target My opinions (with SBNation draft profile links in the names)

Victor Oladipo

Oladipo is an explosive athlete who defends finishes etc etc etc He is a younger version of one of the max free agents

this summer Andre Iguodala

However chances are that Oladipo who had been seen in some mocks around the 5 pick is more likely to land in the

top 3 -- so the Hawks wouldnt be guaranteed he would be there

Alex Len

Len is a legit 7-footer that would allow Al Horford to move to the power forward position more often But despite being

more well rounded offensively than the Hawks choices at the 1718 slots he may not be different enough to be worthyof moving up to get him

Trey Burke

Burke and Michael Carter-Williams are the two lottery point guards in this draft and the two have been jockeyed back

and forth in GMs minds as to whom is better

International Scouting Goes Full Circle

International scouting has come full circle in the last decade with relative unknowns sneaking into the late first round We discuss the unique

situations of Giannis Adetokunbo Dennis Schroeder (pictured) and others

These are the three names that we consider to be the most likely targets based on fit and needs for the Hawks But

Oladipo is unlikely to be there at 5 and Len is being talked about as potentially the 1 pick now to Cleveland it leaves

the likelyhood of the Hawks targeting someone around the 5 slot to be Burke

Burkes run as the Michigan Wolverines floor general was eye-catching His leadership scoring and playmakingreminded many of Chris Pauls similar leadership of his Wake Forest teams

Burke is visually similar to Paul while not being completely statistically equal many of the skill sets are the same Burkes

defense has been in question but his playmaking has not To trade up for Burke would be announcing that he is the point

guard of the next Hawks playoff team whenever that may be

Jeff Teague holds the title of point guard of the last Hawks playoff team but is a restricted free agent this summer While

the team will surely offer a qualifying offer to Teague thus keeping him restricted and protecting right of first refusal we

believe he hasnt shown the mental approach to the position to convince Hawks management that he would be worthy of

a 5 year 10M+ per year commitment

The team is NOT likely to be targeting Shabazz Muhammed who was linked in the article The Hawks have him in the

mix for 1718 picks along with Jamaal Franklin Gorgui Dieng and Mason Plumlee Also important to note that trading

up has only been discussed as a pure transfer of draft picks likely to also include pick 47 in the second round

Al Horford is not being discussed as a possible trade piece here America

Exit Question Should the Hawks move up And if they do who would you want to target with that pick
