John Jenkins and Jared Cunningham?

Hi, not a hawks fan, but it's the height of fake trade season and I'm looking for some insight on what these guys are worth to the hawks and what they might be worth to other teams?

Are they currently rotation guys? rough ceiling/floor projections? offensive or defensive liabilities?

Jenkins: showed potential last year (nearly a 50/40/90 guy until he tired in the stretch run) and we had high hopes for him this year. Injured his back in the off-season and never really got healthy. Had surgery and is now out for the year. I doubt he'll be traded - we'd still value him highly due to what we saw last season, but everyone else would see a potential career inhibiting injury.

Cunningham: received him as a salary dump from DAL. Has spent the season in D-League. Expiring $1.2M contract. End of the bench filler type.

Real Talk....

Cunningham may be a diamond in the rough. He is owning our DL team.

Jenkins... There's something wrong here. This guy is regressing. He looked decent last season, he hasn't reached his form since.

...

WHAT?

Cunningham has been medicore at best in the D-League and Jenkins got injured. What do you mean "something" is wrong and he hasn't reached form since? Back surgery and being out of the season COULD have something to do with that.
