Following the recent news of the Hawks releasing long time project center Edy Tavares to make room for the signing of Ryan Kelly, it appears that the time and efforts on Tavares was a waste.

There is a draft pick that the Hawks made in 2013 that I really wish they would have stuck with. The news today on Walter Edy Tavares concerning the Hawks confirms what was a long drawn out foregone conclusion that Atlanta had giving up on him as a prospect. At 7’3″ and a quality rebounder, there aren’t many reasons to blame the Hawks for taking a chance on him as a traditional center.
