I wish we were seeing these guys compete against actual future NBA players...

Atlanta Hawks

On Kobe Bufkin: “I’m a little worried about him. Athletically, he’s fine. He’s too quick and too strong for guys here (Las Vegas Summer League). But he’s got to shoot it better. And he has to stay healthy. Hopefully it will come together for him,” a Hawks scout said.



I fear Kobe is NOT getting his option picked up this Fall.

We'll see if he can develop his shot.

He is only 21 years old, so I would hate for us to not pickup his option, but he is owed a great deal of money.

The Atlanta Hawks reportedly are moving on from one of their young players.

Per ESPN's Shams Charania, the Hawks are trading Kobe Bufkin to the Brooklyn Nets in return for cash considerations. According to ESPN's Bobby Marks, the trade will create a $5.4 million trade exception for Atlanta. https://bleacherreport.com/articles/25249567-nets-reportedly-trade-hawks-kobe-bufkin-sg-was-no-15-pick-2023-nba-draft

Our lack of backup point guard is increasingly worrisome. I don't feel confident with a hodgepodge of NAW/Dyson/Vit/Kennard. Neither can handle the backup PG duties for long stretches.

Trae is about to have ownership over a barrel with no realistic options if he leaves.
