After yesterday's trades, the chances of the Hawks moving up in the draft seem less likely. While it's not entirely impossible the Hawks and Portland Trail Blazers strike a deal for the No. 7 overall pick, we are operating under the assumption that no trade takes place.

Atlanta's front office has hosted over 100 prospects for in-person workouts and interviewed several other top players. Yesterday, we gave you the draft experts' predictions. Today we give you our final thoughts.
