In 2014-15, DeMarre Carroll had a breakout season for the Atlanta Hawks. His 13 points and 4 rebounds in 31 minutes, plus his defensive intensity, were an anchor for the Hawks on the perimeter. In the playoffs, he was even better- 15 points, 6 rebounds, 49% shooting- despite his injury in the Eastern Conference Finals. For the entire playoff season, DeMarre was the most consistent player of the Hawks starting five.
Now comes the hard part for the Atlanta Hawks. They have to decide how much DeMarre is worth on the open market. The market determines value; you are worth what someone is willing to pay you.
