Atlanta Hawks: 7 Takeaways from First Week of Preseason

The Atlanta Hawks, at long last, have actually played a few basketball games after a seemingly interminable offseason.

Though the summer was chock-full of blockbuster moves and multiple major transactions, there’s nothing quite like watching the team compete on the floor against another team for the first time as a (nearly) complete unit since April.

Now that the preseason is fully underway, we’ve gotten a look at multiple new players on the roster and a feel for how new head coach Lloyd Pierce’s rotation might pan out.

The Atlanta Hawks have a 1-2 record in the preseason after a strong showing against the New Orleans Pelicans in their first preseason game, followed by two blowout defeats at the hands of the Memphis Grizzlies and Oklahoma City Thunder.
