Atlanta’s preference to keep Dedmon and Lin continues their season-long strategy

After a lot of fanfare and a handful of rumors, the Atlanta Hawks stood pat at the trade deadline, save for a pair of small moves at the end of their roster. As of this writing, they still have two open roster spots; they’ll have to fill at least one of those but likely will use both much in the same way they did last year: to rotate through 10-day contracts in the hopes of finding a diamond in the rough among the G Leaguers they call up.

There will also be the opportunity to convert Alex Poythress from his Two-Way contract, but this late in the season and with no postseason in front of them, doing so wouldn’t be advisable.
