Dewayne Dedmon, Atlanta Hawks
Likeliness to get traded: 7/10
The Atlanta Hawks seem to be primed to be big sellers at the NBA Trade Deadline to aid in their tanking efforts and to help bolster their young core – Trae Young and John Collins – with young talent and future draft picks.
Dewayne Dedmon seems to be a likely casualty of the Hawks’ trade deadline fire sell. Dedmon is a very serviceable big man who can stretch the floor and be a big presence on the defensive end. He is averaging a block and a steal per game this season in just 24 minutes of action per game.
He’s on a decent contract as well, so he could be a good addition to just about any team who needs a solid back up center that is looking to make a playoff – or championship – push during the second half of the season.
Trade Idea: 76ers trade Markelle Fultz to the Hawks for Dewayne Dedmon and Taurean Prince
