Former Trail Blazers wing Evan Turner has played sparingly for the Hawks since he arrived in Atlanta prior to the 2019-20 season. According to what Turner revealed to Boston Globe writer Gary Washburn, that trend is likely to continue.
The 31-year-old veteran told Washburn that the Hawks plan to utilize their younger players in the midst of a 7-28 season—a move that would leave both Turner and Chandler Parsons out of the lineup.
Evan Turner is not active tonight for the #Hawks and said the team talked to him and Chandler Parsons, who has played in six games this season, about being inactive for the foreseeable future as ATL goes with younger players.
