The Atlanta Hawks put together an impressive victory last night over the Oklahoma City Thunder and tomorrow, they head on the road to face the Indiana Pacers and their No. 1 offense.
The Hawks and the Pacers played in a classic and high-scoring game earlier this year and could do so again tomorrow. Atlanta just released their injury report for tomorrow’s game, but there is nothing new added to it.
Mouhamed Gueye (right low back stress fracture), De’Andre Hunter (right knee inflammation), and Vit Krejci (left shoulder subluxation) are all out for tomorrow’s game vs Indiana.
Atlanta has won two games in a row and has a little momentum going into the New Year. Nothing is perfect, but Jalen Johnson’s return has been a boost for the team. Still, trade rumors are rampant right now around the Hawks and they might look different in a few weeks no matter how well they play.
There might not be a more interesting team to watch ahead of the NBA trade deadline than the Atlanta Hawks.
Atlanta has been rumored to be in the mix for trades, whether it was as buyer or sellers and yesterday on Threads, NBA Insider Adrian Wojnarowski had this to say regarding the Hawks and a question he received about the Hawks being buyers or sellers:
“The Hawks are absolutely open for business on trades. GM Landry Fields seems determined to make changes to that roster.”
He did not say whether the Hawks would be buyers or sellers though. Most of the rumors surrounding the Hawks have been around them being buyers though and in the mix for players such as Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen and Toronto Raptors forward Pascal Siakam.
Keep an eye out and an ear open over the next few weeks.
