The Atlanta Hawks did not make as many moves this offseason as they did last year, but everything they did set them up for this season and beyond.
Signing young cornerstones Trae Young and John Collins to long-term contracts, while also re-signing valuable depth pieces and drafting for the future are keys to a successful franchise.
Free agency for the Hawks this offseason was more about fixing holes than anything, and that’s what they did with the moves they made.
One of those moves was a three-team trade that sent Bruno Fernando and Kris Dunn to the Boston Celtics, Tristan Thompson to the Sacramento Kings, and Delon Wright to the Hawks.
