Atlanta Hawks:
Offense: (103.0) 29th
Defense: (112.6) 25th
Net: (minus -9.6) 30th
Games Week 12 (0-4): Lost vs. Nuggets: 115-123, Rockets: 115-122, Wizards: 101-111, Nets: 86-108
Games Week 13 (3 games): Tues vs Suns | Fri at Spurs | Sat vs Pistons
An interesting stat I saw on one of the games this week is Trae Young gets double-teamed more than any other player including James Harden and Luka Doncic (color me impressed!).
The other big news is rumors of the Hawks investigating an Andre Drummond trade. It seems more like a ploy by the star’s agent to drum up (no pun intended) extra interest, especially with some of the teams leaked as being interested. Two, in particular, seem odd, firstly because they keep secrets in house and second because he isn’t a good fit there — namely the Mavericks and Raptors.
The Atlanta Hawks have extra first round picks from Brooklyn and potentially Oklahoma City to put in a trade for Andre Drummond. Matching $27M in salary for Dummond in trade is no issue, as the Hawks can simply send Chandler Parsons' expiring $25M contract to Pistons.

To that end, I’m not sure how Drummond would fit this roster either or how Lloyd Pierce would work him into the system to capitalize on both Collins and Drummond with Trae Young.
