Atlanta Hawks
Through the 2032 draft the Hawks control 8 first-round picks and 8 second-round picks, with 2 tied up in swap rights. Their firsts land in 2026, 2027, 2028, 2029, 2030, 2031, and 2032. 5 of their own picks are owed elsewhere.
In 2026 the Hawks hold 3 picks: CLE's first (Cleveland's own first conveyed to Atlanta, landing at pick 23, from the De'Andre Hunter trade with Atlanta.), NOP's first (New Orleans's own first conveyed to Atlanta, landing at pick 8, as the more favorable of the New Orleans and Milwaukee 2026 firsts. From the June 2025 Derik Queen deal.), and BOS's second (Boston's own second conveyed to Atlanta at pick 57, from the June 2025 Porzingis three-team trade.); they also owe out their own first to SAS (Atlanta's own first conveyed to San Antonio as the more favorable of the Atlanta and San Antonio 2026 firsts, landing at pick 20. From the Dejounte Murray obligation to San Antonio.) and their own second to DEN (Atlanta's own second conveyed to Denver at pick 49, routed via Brooklyn and Golden State.).
In 2027 the Hawks pick twice: MIL's first (Atlanta receives the less favorable of the New Orleans and Milwaukee 2027 firsts, top-4 protected; New Orleans keeps the more favorable on its own slot. From the 2020 Jrue Holiday trade and the Dejounte Murray obligation.) and their own second; they also owe out their own first to SAS (Atlanta's own first is owed to San Antonio unprotected, the final year of the Dejounte Murray obligation. Separately, Atlanta receives the less favorable of the New Orleans and Milwaukee 2027 firsts, top-4 protected, which lands on Milwaukee's slot.).
In 2028 the Hawks pick once: their own first, swap-encumbered (ATL holds the most favorable of its own first and the less favorable of the UTA and CLE 2028 firsts, from arrangements tied to the earlier Cleveland and Utah trades.); they also owe out their own second to BKN (Owed to Brooklyn, unprotected.).
In 2029 the Hawks pick twice: their own first and CLE's second (Unprotected second owed to Atlanta, tied to the De'Andre Hunter trade structure.); they also owe out their own second to OKC (Owed to Oklahoma City, unprotected.).
In 2030 the Hawks hold 3 picks: their own first, their own second, and NYK's second (Unprotected second routed through Portland and terminal in Atlanta, from the Vit Krejci trade.).
In 2031 the Hawks pick twice: their own first and their own second, swap-encumbered (HOU holds swap rights on this second, protected 56-60, from the July 2025 Clint Capela seven-team trade.).
In 2032 the Hawks hold 3 picks: their own first, their own second, and LAL's second (Owed to Atlanta as Kennard trade compensation.).
The rule behind this
An unsigned first-round pick charges the team's cap at 120% of his draft slot's rookie-scale salary (because first-rounders may sign for up to 120% of scale, and almost all do).
