4. Tobias Harris

Tobias Harris would make another solid fit at the small forward position for the Hawks. He also gives Atlanta the option to play him at power forward, which gives them flexibility when putting game plans together.

At 26 years old, Harris has enough experience to join this young Hawks squad and lead by both example and experience. He averaged 20 points, 8 rebounds, and three assists while shooting efficiently from everywhere on the floor, much like Bogdanovic. His 3-point capability and size in the paint would make him a versatile scorer in the Hawks potent offense.

While not as good of a defender as Bogdanovic, Harris’ size would allow him to guard multiple positions on the floor. Plus, he already had better Defensive Win Share numbers than pretty much every current Hawks player, so he shouldn’t make the defense worse.

Harris is a player many teams will be interested in this offseason. He has already played for five different teams in his career, which proves that he is someone teams are willing to put out on the floor. Of all the teams that will show him the attention and money he will want, Atlanta is just as interesting as any of them.
