Brand I assume is out, hell prob retire. Jenkins is most likely gone unless his market is super small. Doubt he comes back with no real spot for him.

Daye is his contract guaranteed past this season?

Tavares will def ride the pine behind pero if we resign him

Not sure how much have you followed Tavares but he developed nicely this season, emerged as one of the top young big men in Europe.He would probably backup Horford, imo he might be better than any backup big you currently have.He is like Gobert (when he played in Europe) but with lot more exposure and better team.

So from my research, I'd say that his game is similar to Roy Hibbert's. I'd say that the Hawks could use Roy HIbbert-lite for 15 minutes a game when Horford needs a rest.

It would be nice for him to come over to help with our center depth, which is really lacking. Horford, Pero, and Brand but next year you have to assume Pero and Brand will both be gone. Muscala and Scott are good offensive minded forwards and Tavares can counter that with solid defense.

Not so fast, i wouldn't hand over Peros' minutes to Eddy so quickly. Eddy will be the 12th man and be in and out of the D-League, just like Dennis in his rookie season.

Pero is expiring this year and will likely bolt. We do not need to overpay to keep him. I would be in favor of signing a replacement big who can also shoot the three.

Everything I've heard from the Hawks' and Pero's camps is that they both want Pero back with the Hawks next year. I have a feeling that the Hawks are going to value Pero much more than any other team in the league, so I fully expect him to be back next year. Not saying I AGREE with the decision to bring him back, but I bet it does happen. Pretty sure Brand is going to be the one who isn't back next year (retirement, perhaps?).

For Pero, its 50-50 as of now. From what I hear is that Budz wants him back, because he knows the system, but he might get a bigger offer overseas. I think the Hawks want him back but not enough to give him a raise, he might get offered double or triple what he is making now back in Europe.
