Hawks’ Tough Roster Cut Decisions | Atlanta Hawks News

The Atlanta Hawks are in a tough spot with 17 players under contract and 3 on two-way deals, needing to trim to 15 before the season. Every player is valuable, making cuts painful. Trading veterans like Kispert or Hield isn’t easy — their contracts don’t make them attractive trade assets. Enter Mo Gueye, a beloved defender with room to grow offensively. With three rookies locked in and Gueye’s low salary, he’s a prime trade candidate — possibly fetching draft picks. If a deal falls through, releasing him makes sense since his contract expires after next season. Cutting Gueye and one of the new point guards could solve roster issues. And with Jonathan Kuminga’s free agency looming, the Hawks’ summer moves may dictate who ultimately gets cut — even if it stings fans.
