The Atlanta Hawks made some serious moves in the offseason and are now considered a serious playoff team in the East.
They acquired one-time All-Star and two-way guard Dejounte Murray from San Antonio and paired him up with Trae Young. They were lacking in the backcourt, and Murray's addition makes them formidable. They have a decent frontcourt with John Collins and Clint Capela and now are expected to be one of the top six playoff seeds in the Eastern Conference.
They made the Eastern Conference finals in 2021, but then lost in the first round of 2022. Thus, this move came at the right time, and they seem ready to make a deep postseason run.
The Hawks don't take part in the California Classic or Salt Lake City Summer League and will directly participate in the Las Vegas games.
