Looking to bolster their roster during the shortened offseason, the Atlanta Hawks are reportedly set to make a "significant" free agent offer to Brooklyn Nets sharpshooter Joe Harris, according to Sam Amico of Amicohoops.

With rumors already circulating that the Hawks might trade their No. 6 pick in Wednesday's draft to acquire an immediate impact player to surround their young talent with, adding Harris, 29, would give Atlanta one of the league's premier 3-point shooters.

Last season, Harris averaged 14.5 points, 4.3 rebounds and 2.1 assists while shooting 48.6 percent from field and 42.4 percent from behind the 3-point line.

Harris won the 2018-19 NBA All-Star 3-point contest and has improved his stats each season since entering the league in 2014.

In today's NBA, there is no such thing as too many 3-point shooters and Harris, who spent the beginning of his career in Cleveland before signing with the Nets, is one of the top free agents on the market.

NBA free agency will officially begin on Nov. 20, two days after the draft.
