Report: Hawks considering moving down in draft, eyeing Trae Young

The Atlanta Hawks appear open to parting ways with their No. 3 pick in Thursday's NBA draft, with their sights set on arguably the best shooter of this year's class who is likely to still be available later.

Atlanta has reportedly fielded numerous phone calls concerning its third overall selection, and should the Hawks move down, they'd look at moving for Oklahoma guard Trae Young, league sources told Yahoo Sports' Chris Mannix.

The New York Knicks, Chicago Bulls, Orlando Magic, and Los Angeles Clippers all have reported interested in the pick.

Atlanta finished the 2017-18 regular season ranked 25th in points (103.4) and 26th in offense (102.4 points per 100 possessions). During his one and only year with the Sooners, Young ranked first in the nation in scoring, averaging 27.4 points and knocking down 3.7 3-pointers per game.
