Expansion Draft

[TheProfessor]

Hey Hawks fans, Just wanted to know if in an expansion draft what 8 players are you protecting? Remember 1 player must be unprotected from the draft and player/team options can also be protected. Thanks guys. Also what would you be willing to give up to protect one of your players from not being selected.

I'll bite.

Of the roster below....

Spoiler:

Hawks protect:

1. Trae
2. Jalen
3. Hunter
4. Risacher
5. Dyson
6. Onyeka
7. Kobe
8. Bogdan

None of those guys is untouchable. But they each have value on the court and in future trades.

Who would you say is the most valuable guy you have unprotected? Roddy?

Not even close.

Clint Capela is a starting caliber Center for a team in need rebounding/rim protection.

Mo Gueye and Dom Barlow have good size and solid potential, but are years away from even being regular rotation guys.



David Roddy is...easily acquirable. Probably a minimum salary guy once he hits free agency this summer.

Clint Capela would be a UFA, sorry should have clarified this that the draft would be in the offseason of 2025. Would love to have a guy like Clint Capela tho.
