15. Atlanta Hawks – Jalen Hood-Schifino, G, Indiana

Who knows what the Atlanta Hawks end up doing this offseason and whether or not they end up keeping both Trae Young and Dejounte Murray, but if there’s any doubt that the duo can succeed in Atlanta, perhaps the team would be open to adding a bit of insurance with the No. 15 pick in the NBA Draft.

One player that would make some sense is Jalen Hood-Schifino. He’s a big guard that could probably play the point of shooting position at the next level.

16. Utah Jazz – (via Minnesota Timberwolves) – G.G. Jackson, F, South Carolina

G.G. Jackson is a prospect that the Utah Jazz could theoretically take a chance on. They are in the initial stages of a rebuild and should be taking fliers on potential more so than players that can contribute in a bit way now.

Utah showed flashes last season as they were in the playoff race for much of the year, and much of that can be attributed to first-year head coach Will Hardy, but they’re still figuring out what the new foundation is going to look like moving forward. Jackson would be an excellent selection at No. 16.
