The Atlanta Hawks are among the biggest wild cards of the upcoming NBA offseason. They own the #1 overall pick, are open to trading every player on the roster, and nobody is quite sure if they want to compete or rebuild moving forward.
The calendar has turned to June and the NBA offseason rumor mill is going to be in full force leading up to a huge offseason in the league. The Atlanta Hawks are going to be an interesting team to follow this off-season for a number of reasons.
The team has talent on the roster, but the pieces don’t fit well together and not many of the players are well-rounded.
Ahead of a pivotal offseason for the Hawks, in which many expect sweeping changes to come for Atlanta’s roster, a couple of old friends could also see themselves a part of trades.
The Swiss international had maybe his toughest season since coming to Atlanta. Clint Capela has been a lightning rod for criticism over the Hawks’ collective sagging play over the past three seasons — especially so last season.
In what’s become an increasingly global game, the Atlanta Hawks appear to be going international. Though they may still trade their top pick, the two prospects heavily linked to the Hawks are natives of France.
The Hawks have two of the biggest dominos of the offseason that will soon fall this Summer. Trae Young and Dejounte Murray are expected to be on the trade block with one of Atlanta’s All-Star point guards expected to be dealt.
The offseason has already begun for most of the NBA, but things will really heat up over the next month with the NBA Draft around the corner. That’s at the forefront of the Atlanta Hawks to-do list, given they have the number one overall pick.
It’s the calm before the storm for the Atlanta Hawks this summer. As the Western Conference Finals wrap up, a new champion will soon be crowned followed by a flood of rumors and reports.
Lakers GM Rob Pelinka is preparing for a critical summer and he's ready to make some big changes to the roster. According to Lakers insider Jovan Buha, the team has already closed in on four main trade targets this offseason: Trae Young, Dejounte Murray, Donovan Mitchell, and Darius Garland.
We are less than four weeks away from the 2024 NBA Draft and after winning the Draft Lottery for the first time in franchise history, the Atlanta Hawks are going to be setting the tone for how round one is going to go.
The Hawks have the opportunity to completely reshape the roster this offseason. Despite the Spurs owning a few of their first-round picks, Atlanta has plenty of resources to elevate the club.
What are the Atlanta Hawks going to do with the No. 1 pick in the 2024 NBA Draft? For teams that are picking in the lottery, that is the question that is waiting to be answered.
While he is not going to go first in this year's NBA Draft, Bronny James, son of Los Angeles Lakers Forward LeBron James, might be the most intriguing player in this year's NBA Draft.
The Hawks are expected to shake up the roster in a big way this offseason, and the two biggest dominos are easily what they do with the No. 1 overall pick and a Dejounte Murray or Trae Young trade.
One NBA analyst proposed that the Atlanta Hawks trade Trae Young to the New Orleans Pelicans for Brandon Ingram this offseason. Young and Ingram could be traded this offseason, sources told Hoops Wire. “Ingram is a 26-year-old with an All-Star nod and a Most Improved Player award on his resume,” Zach Buckley of Bleacher Report wrote.
The Hawks are expected to trade one of Dejounte Murray or Trae Young because the two have proven over multiple seasons that they cannot co-exist. That’s not to say they aren’t valuable players, but the fit was awkward from the start and never corrected itself.
The NBA Draft is less than a month away, and soon after that free agency will begin. It would seem this offseason will be that of major changes for the Atlanta Hawks, who have consistently underwhelmed each season since their magical run to the Eastern Conference Finals three years ago.
The Atlanta Hawks and New Orleans Pelicans are two teams that have been linked together multiple times throughout the past few months and it is not hard to see why.
The Hawks are expected to field trade offers on most of their roster. A report from Marc Stein said that Atlanta is expected to dangle Clint Capela on the trade market, and Michael Scotto also reported more recently that the club is expected to put De’Andre Hunter on the trade block.
De'Andre Hunter is coming off another productive year where he averaged 15.6 points, 3.9 rebounds and 1.5 assists per contest while shooting 45.9% from the field and 38.5% from the three-point range in 57 regular season games.
One NBA writer proposed that the Orlando Magic acquire Trae Young from the Atlanta Hawks this offseason. Andy Bailey of Bleacher Report proposed the following
If the Pelicans were to further explore a trade with the Hawks, it sounds as though they prefer one of Atlanta's star guards to the other.
According to NBA insider Eric Pincus of Bleacher Report, before trading for Dennis Schröder, the Nets were in talks with the Lakers on a blockbuster trade.
The veteran big man could find himself on the trade block this summer.
