Atlanta Hawks Sign 3-Point Specialist Kennard, Acquire Guard Alexander-Walker in Sign-and-Trade
The Atlanta Hawks have strengthened their roster by signing sharpshooter Luke Kennard to a one-year, $11 million deal and acquiring guard Nickeil Alexander-Walker from the Minnesota Timberwolves via a sign-and-trade. Kennard, known for his elite three-point shooting, has maintained a .400%-or-better three-point percentage over the past five seasons, ranking among the best in NBA history, and is expected to enhance the Hawks' offensive versatility. Meanwhile, Alexander-Walker, who inked a four-year, $62 million deal including a player option, brings defensive intensity, shooting, and durability, having played every regular-season game in the last two seasons. Hawks GM Onsi Saleh emphasized both players' contributions on and off the court, highlighting their fit within the team's culture and potential to elevate performance. Kennard expressed optimism about the team's versatility and potential following recent acquisitions, while Alexander-Walker's consistent play and defensive prowess were noted as assets for the Hawks. These moves reflect the Hawks' commitment to bolstering their competitiveness following a season impacted by injuries.
