When we boast of the Atlanta Hawks depth being among the best in the league, it isn’t hyperbole. They can legitimately claim to be three-deep at every position when healthy, but that was a major caveat last season as they were in the top-five in games lost due to injury.
It’s the only thing from last season that they could have done without.
Forward De’Andre Hunter was one of the players to miss a significant chunk of the regular season, appearing in just 18 games before going out the first time and only played in five regular-season games the rest of the way.
