Why The Atlanta Hawks Do The Deal

Meanwhile, the Atlanta Hawks don’t necessarily get better by losing Clint Capela. Still, this trade improves their situation. For starters, they’ve got Onyeka Onkongwu waiting behind Capela in the rotation.

This young big man has flashed starter potential during his NBA career so far. With this deal, the Hawks finally clear the runway for him to meet that potential. 

Why not acquire an elite shooter in the process? This team could stand to improve their spacing. Adding McDermott would go a long way toward accomplishing that goal. 

Finally, the Hawks get one of the picks back that they sent the Spurs in exchange for Dejounte Murray as well. That will improve their flexibility.
