So...did Kyle Korver get fired?

Demoted?

Atlanta Hawks hire Bob Myers disciple from Warriors

The Hawks hire Onsi Saleh as Assistant General Manager, who has significant experience with the Spurs and Warriors.

Saleh, noted by Wojnarowski in a tweet, contributes significant front office expertise to the Hawks. He most recently held the position of Vice President, Basketball Strategy & Team Counsel for the Golden State Warriors. In this capacity, Saleh aided Warriors’ GM Mike Dunleavy in all basketball operation aspects, acting as a key advisor for roster building – encompassing trades, signings, and draft strategies. Handling legal matters for the team, Saleh supervised league compliance, salary cap, collective bargaining agreement analysis, immigration, and other related areas.

He served in other capacities for the Warriors organization as well such as Basketball Strategy/Assistant team Counsel and Director of Basketball Strategy & Team Counsel. He also worked closely with Spurs CEO R.C. Buford, serving in several capacities. He is the latest Golden State Warriors front office alum to work with the Warriors Hawks, following Travis Schlenk’s run as President of Basketball Operations and General Manager.

Saleh will surely be needed in an offseason that might see significant changes to the roster.

Not the most experienced dude, but a keen legal mind to handle negotiations and manage salary cap issues.

I dig it.

No change to Kyle's role. Onside is more legal, salary cap etc.

Onsi's role with GSW was in basketball strategy and team counsel. Assume a similar role with the Hawks.

Kyle is in charge of player development.
