General Manager Travis Schlenk has many valuable assets that should allow the Hawks to be sellers at the deadline, but there is one they shouldn’t part with unless they get a very good deal.
Do The Hawks Even Have to Make a Trade?
They can, but the question is what kind of value can they actually get? With the Hawks having three 1st-round picks in this upcoming NBA Draft and two 1st-rounders in 2019, the need to stockpile draft picks is not really necessary.
Ersan Ilyasova, Marco Belinelli, Malcolm Delaney, and Luke Babbit‘s contracts all run out at the end of the season, making them tradeable assets.
