Hawks Waive Bones Hyland Two Days After Trade

The Atlanta Hawks have waived Bones Hyland following a trade that brought him from the Los Angeles Clippers. Hyland participated in only 20 games this season, averaging 7.2 points, 1.2 rebounds, and 1.4 assists per game, with shooting percentages of 39.1% from the field and 38.8% from three-point range. His time with the Hawks was brief, as he struggled to find consistent playing time due to defensive shortcomings and a lack of offensive initiation skills. The trade deadline also saw the Hawks acquire Bogdan Bogdanovic from the Clippers, indicating a shift in team strategy. With Hyland hitting waivers, he will have the opportunity to join another NBA team if claimed. The Hawks are expected to continue adapting their roster for the remainder of the season after recent trades.
