We’re into the stretch run of the season.
The dust has settled on the All-Star break, and the Hawks are looking to use the final two months of the season as a runway to build for the future.
Of course, the team still has playoff aspirations despite the untimely loss of Jalen Johnson, but clearly the main motivations now are the incorporation of the recently acquired players and the growth of young players like Zaccharie Risacher and Dyson Daniels.
With the waiving of David Roddy and Nah’Shon ‘Bones’ Hyland, the team opened up an extra roster spot for the remainder of the season.
