Hawks: With 12 assists, Young recorded his 27th double-double of the season. Atlanta led 93-75 after three quarters before Phoenix scored the first nine points of the final period. The Hawks, coming off a 2-3 road trip, played only their sixth home game of 2023. “We've got to be sharper with execution on both ends of the floor.” Also, the Hawks acquired former Detroit small forward Saddiq Bey as part of a three-team trade and sent five second-round draft picks to Golden State. “It's more than a lift,” Williams said of the impact he expects from Durant.

Bey is a 3-and-D type wing that will give the Hawks another player in that area alongside De’Andre Hunter.

The Golden State Warriors will receive the picks, which as of now, have not been reported as having any protections.

“It’s tough to say, do we make a splash (or) do we stand pat right now, you know, both options are on the table because we feel good about where we’re at,” Fields said. Just something to keep filed away if this season continues on its current trajectory. “As you know, obviously, some guys, or you know, all guys have value, add value all over the place. [Atlanta Hawks](https://soaringdownsouth.com/atlanta-hawks-news/) are not satisfied. But it’s a fluid market today, right now, and we’ll see what gets done before the deadline.” In the hours that have followed, the NBA has seen a flurry of moves.
In addition to keeping Collins, the Hawks acquired Pistons wing Saddiq Bey in a three-team trade in which the Warriors sent James Wiseman to the Pistons. The ...

Will the additions of Saddiq Bey, Bruno Fernando and Garrison Matthews help Atlanta rise? A lot of things are going to have to go right.
[Saddiq Bey](https://theathletic.com/nba/player/saddiq-bey-1li2WZ1BSYZ7fGTT/), who had a strong rookie season but has struggled with consistency since and is one year away from restricted free agency with a likely high price tag. “Not saying I (expected) us to be 82-0,” Collins said. They had to red-line six players (three starters) — three who went to the [Nets](https://theathletic.com/nba/team/nets/) in the Durant trade, three others because of injuries. So they went with [Chris Paul](https://theathletic.com/nba/player/chris-paul-T2sfGOMEeDjjOrJH/), [Deandre Ayton](https://theathletic.com/nba/player/deandre-ayton-PlF5bckQOtrRhpgu/) and a bunch of guys who’ve never been drafted in a fantasy league. Even if they get better, they don’t look like a team that can seriously contend in the East. [Hawks](https://theathletic.com/nba/team/hawks/) were sloppy, committing 19 turnovers. He has at least $50 million and two years left on his contract after this season, and another $26.6 million if he exercises a player option in 2025-26. The only clear thing is the value they put on second-round picks is somewhere between mold and viruses. His role in the Hawks offense also has been dramatically reduced, so it’s not like he has been showcased for other teams. They believe they’re vastly underperforming to the level of their talent. But it’s never at the front of my mind. It was more annoying than anything because I just want to come in here, play basketball, be around my teammates and win basketball games.
The Atlanta Hawks made a pair of trades for a trio of players that both improved their depth and shaved a little off their bottom line.
He is in the first year of a four-year, $10 million pact that does give the Hawks asset control through the 2026 season or, if they are unsatisfied, in 2025 thanks to a $2.8 million team option in the final year. He is in a down shooting season – just 34.2% of his threes have fallen. Ultimately, that will be the determining factor in whether or not this trade was worth it – despite the seemingly low cost, second-round picks grease a lot of trade wheels. The NBA is a numbers game and three points are worth more than two points. [Clint Capela](https://soaringdownsouth.com/2023/01/11/atlanta-hawks-sign-center-derrick-favors/) and [Onyeka Okongwu](https://soaringdownsouth.com/2023/01/03/atlanta-hawks-loss-reaction-onyeka-okongwu/) on the size chart.

Third-Year Guard/Forward Acquired for Future Draft Considerations.
He became the youngest player in Pistons history to score 50-or-more points (22 years, 342 days) and the first Piston to record at least 51 points, nine rebounds, four assists and three steals in a single game. He was selected as the Julius Erving Small Forward of the Year in 2019-20, while being a unanimous first team All-BIG EAST selection. Atlanta completed a four-team trade, sending a 2023 second round draft pick (the second-most favorable of Atlanta, Brooklyn, and Charlotte), its own 2024 second round draft pick (provided such pick is among 31-55 in 2024 NBA Draft) and its own 2025 second round draft pick (provided such pick is among 31-40 in 2025 NBA Draft) to Portland. The 6-8 forward has poured in 10-or-more points in 40 of his 52 games this season, including netting a season-high 31 points in a win over the Minnesota Timberwolves on Jan. Bey has appeared in 52 games (30 starts) for the Pistons this season, averaging 14.8 points, 4.7 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 28.8 minutes (.404 FG%, .345 3FG%, .861 FT%).

Many, including myself, believed the Atlanta Hawks would stand pat at the NBA trade deadline, but the new-look front office made a couple of moves.
The Hawks are set up to make a run in the Eastern Conference. And once you get into the playoffs, anything can happen in a seven game series. [A subsequent salary dump followed](https://www.sportstalkatl.com/hawks-trade-for-old-friend-in-salary-dump/) that would send Frank Cominsky, [Justin Holiday](https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/h/holidju01.html?utm_medium=linker&utm_source=www.sportstalkatl.com&utm_campaign=2023-02-10_bbr), and two more second-rounders to the Rockets in exchange for Garrison Matthews and [Bruno Fernando](https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/f/fernabr01.html?utm_medium=linker&utm_source=www.sportstalkatl.com&utm_campaign=2023-02-10_bbr).

The Hawks did not stand pat at Thursday's NBA trade deadline, adding some young players to the rotation while keeping their starting unit intact.
The Atlanta Hawks surprising four-team trade for Saddiq Bey could be in danger of being nixed for a rather unexpected reason.
Instead, Fields retains Collins and adds another former 19th overall pick in Bey. Now the Hawks could end up back at square one. Bey is averaging 14.8 points on 55.2% true shooting with 4.7 rebounds, and 1.7 assists. “Payton’s core muscle injury could sideline him for up to three months following a Warriors exam.” [says in a piece co-authored](https://theathletic.com/4180625/2023/02/10/gary-payton-physical-trade/) with Anthony Slater (subscription required). [Saddiq Bey](https://soaringdownsouth.com/2021/10/25/atlanta-hawks-hunter-reddish-key-bey/) by way of the Golden State Warriors.
The Hawks may not be able to add Saddiq Bey after all. On Friday, the Athletic reported that another player in the complicated four-team trade, Gary P.
