The Hawks introduced Tim Hardaway Jr. to assembled media at Philips Arena Monday. Hardaway expressed his pleasure with the trade to the Hawks from the New York Knicks.
"I am happy to be here," Hardaway said. "Obviously the Atlanta Hawks and this organization did a great job last season, making it as far as they could in the playoffs, and I'm just happy to be a part of that."
While the Hawks may not have any rookie draft picks on their roster next season, there are at least four excellent reasons to be excited about Hardaway joining the Hawks.
