PF/C. Duke. Marvin Bagley III. 1. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. 125. player

Marvin Bagley III is far and away the most impressive player in college basketball this season. He’s dominated every opponent he’s faced up against. Also, Bagley should still be a high school senior, but opted to reclassify. I’m sure the Atlanta Hawks will pounce at the chance of landing someone of Bagley’s ability, as well as upside.

The Duke star finally gives the Hawks a potential superstar to build around. It may be enough to eventually lift them up from the dreaded grounds of mediocrity. Paired with Dennis Schroder, Bagley will be feasting. The amount of looks Bagley will get when rolling to the basket is insurmountable.

The Hawks will likely have a high draft pick in the 2019 NBA Draft, giving them an opportunity to build a nice nucleus. Good times may finally be on the horizon for Hawks fans. After the impressive 2015-16 season, it’s all been downhill. Bagley will spark some life into the organization.
