Hawks Roster Crunch Decisions | Atlanta Hawks News

The Atlanta Hawks are in a tough roster crunch after a big trade that brought Luguentz Dort to town, leaving them with 17 players on standard contracts—and two must go before the season starts. With depth now in the backcourt and wings, tough calls loom, especially as some key players like Ryan Nembhard can’t be moved until next year, forcing the front office into a strategic chess match. Injured Mouhamed Gueye, deserving Devin Carter, and even solid shooter Corey Kispert—who’s now overshadowed by Dort and Aaron Wiggins—are all potential casualties. And Buddy Hield? His contract makes him a hot trade target—or a likely cut if the Hawks want to clear space for youth. It’s a roster overflow that’s a luxury problem… but one that demands tough, timely decisions.
