San Antonio Spurs vs Atlanta Hawks Analysis
The San Antonio Spurs have a season they would rather forget. They are in a race for the bottom and hoping to win the Victor Webmanyama sweepstakes. They traded Jakob Poetl to the Raptors, one of their top players, for Khem Birch (a 2024 first-round selection) and two second-round choices. Dewayne Dedmon, a Heat player, was also acquired by the Raptors for cash and a potential second rounder. They also shipped Josh Richardson to Pelicans in exchange for Devonte Graham, four second-round picks, and Josh Richardson. They are now loading up on draft picks and in recent times, few teams have been more successful at finding great second round picks than the Spurs.
At 28-28, the Atlanta Hawks are 8th in the Eastern Conference. The good news is that they are just a few games away from the 6th spot. This guarantees them a place in the playoffs and eliminates the need for a play-in round. The team is coming off a crucial 116-107 win against the Phoenix Suns. Trae Young was with 36 points and 7 rebounds. He also had 12 assists. Dejounte, Trae Young’s back court mate, added 19 points and 8 rebounds. At the trade deadline, the Hawks also were active, as they acquired Saddiq from the Pistons via Golden State in a multi-team transaction. Five second-round picks were sent by the Hawks to Bey. The Rockets’ Garrison Mathews, Bruno Fernando, and Justin Holiday were also acquired by the Hawks. They also received two second-round picks. They are quite healthy at the moment and should be ready to go for the stretch with the addition of Bey as a solid player.
