I am not making a draft prediction for JO, but I think the mock drafts we are seeing have a meme bias that reflects what the teams want others to believe. The Hawks are being publicly very coy about what they will do with their picks, but behind the scenes someone is feeding the ESPN, SI, etc guys info about the team's intentions that have a strategic motive. They are trying to influence other teams to make choices that benefit the Hawks' draft positions.
For one, I cannot believe the Hawks will pass on Bagley if he is still around at #3. They have been very silent about JO, but I think they were very impressed. If they get Bagley or Jackson at #2, they need a guard in the first round. I may be wrong, but I think Josh is the best guard likely to be around at #19.
