Trade rumors have been heating up as the February 6th deadline approaches and teams look to take a final opportunity to improve their rosters mid-season. The Atlanta Hawks have been linked to several prominent big men such as Andre Drummond and Steven Adams. According to Bleacher Report’s Michael Scotto, they have also expressed interest in San Antonio Spurs’ center, Jakob Poeltl.
The Hawks started the season as a dark horse pick to take one of the final Eastern Conference playoff spots but have struggled to live up to expectations. They currently have the second-worst record in the NBA so it makes sense that they would be trying to improve.
