NBA: Grading every team’s 2019 offseason after the draft and free agency
Atlanta Hawks
Key additions: De’Andre Hunter, Cam Reddish, Jabari Parker, Allen Crabbe
Key subtractions: Taurean Prince
After a sensational rookie season from Trae Young, the Atlanta Hawks headed into the 2019 NBA offseason with great momentum. Couple that with the fact that they had two top 10 picks in the upcoming NBA Draft, and the stage was set for the Hawks to have a great summer.
That’s exactly what they did. In the NBA Draft, the Hawks landed both Cam Reddish and De’Andre Hunter – two players that, at certain points during the weeks leading up to the draft, were considered top 5 prospects.
They also added Allen Crabbe (via trade) and Jabari Parker in free agency, two players that will prove the be valued veterans in the locker room. Parker is a low risk, high reward risk for the Hawks to take. The future is bright in Atlanta.
