The Atlanta Hawks open training camp on Tuesday but took part in media day on Monday along with the rest of the NBA. It was an eventful and insightful day. Head Coach Nate McMillan was once again clear in his message of unselfishness to his team. The Hawks boasted some of the league’s best depth last season, even when injured. It should be even better now.
Players also gave optimistic outlooks, even amid the recent revelations that about a quarter of the regular roster will be slowed by injuries to start camp.
From a macro view, against the backdrop of the rest of the league, the day was even better.
