The Atlanta Hawks are in a different position this season from past years, as they definitely fit the category of sellers at the trade deadline in 2018. With the deadline quickly approaching, here are 20 possible trades to excite Atlanta fans about the upcoming frenzy.
As a general rule of thumb, most of these proposals involve the veterans the Hawks have on one-year deals (Marco Belinelli, Ersan Ilyasova, Dewayne Dedmon, Luke Babbitt), but there are a few surprises in the mix.
This trade is pretty straightforward and works well for both sides. The Thunder are able to upgrade their bench significantly in a win-now move and the Hawks gain an asset in Chicago’s second round pick, which is expected to be in the 31-40 pick range.
