Starting Shooting Guard: Steve Smith

1995-1999 Stats: 18.6 PPG 3.6 APG 3.8 RPG 0.9 SPG .429 FG%

One of the smoothest players of the 90’s, Smith was arguably the best pure scorer the franchise has ever employed.

“Smitty” was dealt to Atlanta after four seasons as a member of the Miami Heat. With the Hawks, he had the opportunity to shoot as much as he needed, and it worked out perfectly. As the main scorer alongside a number of other stars, Smith averaged almost 20 points per game, and was an integral part of multiple successful teams.

He was dealt to Portland before the 2000 season began, and the era of Hawks’ success was halted until the late 2000s. In his time as a Hawk, though, he was one of the most consistent, impactful scorers the team has seen.
