Hawks- B+
Hornets- B-

I like the swing for the Hawks, if DFS can get anything close to his pre 2025 self this will be a great trade, and it didn’t cost them much.

Charlotte gets off his contract and gets a good vet shooter, don’t hate it for them.

[Shams Charania @ShamsCharania]

The Atlanta Hawks are trading Buddy Hield, Ryan Nembhard and cash to the Charlotte Hornets for Dorian Finney-Smith, sources tell ESPN.

[NBA Empire @TheEmpireNBA]

@ShamsCharania We’ll see if DFS can get back to his 24-25 self, I like the swing for Atlanta, and it’s a fine trade for Charlotte

This is a very good deal for Duren, could even go as far as say it’s an overpay. He better accept this
