Jarrett Allen – #19 to Atlanta

We do not anticipate Jarrett Allen falling this far in the NBA Draft. But, the Mock Draft released by Chad Ford of ESPN.com has Allen falling all the way to the edge of the 20-range.

Allen would obviously benefit from working with veteran big man Dwight Howard. But, the Hawks are loaded with big men after Howard.

Atlanta has Paul Millsap, Mike Muscala, Ryan Kelly, and Taurean Prince from Baylor on their current roster. It would be difficult for Allen to get a lot of playing time early in his career.
