19. Atlanta Hawks (via Minnesota Timberwolves) – Anfernee Simons, G, IMG Academy

The Atlanta Hawks would be taking a big risk by selecting Anfernee Simons with the 19th pick in the NBA Draft, but they’re a team that can afford to take a big swing and miss at this point.

The Hawks are extremely young and just added Mo Bamba in the first round. Look for Atlanta to add some backcourt help to their loaded frontcourt. Simons likely won’t be ready to be a contributor on day 1, but could progress and develop into a really good NBA player in a couple years.
