The Hawks are definitely interested in various players, such as Zach LaVine, as well as possibly aiding some of the franchises attempting to put together superteams by taking on bad money while accruing quality draft picks and young players.
One move the team did announce prior to July 1 was the release of backup point guard Isaiah Taylor, who was quite productive for the Hawks last season and showed flashes of impressive speed and solid finishing around the rim during his full major role in the NBA.
Taylor played sparingly for the Rockets in 2016-17, but was given much freer rein as a member of Atlanta after taking over the point guard duties for Malcolm Delaney (who was also recently let go) early on in the season.
