With the December 15th date looming, in which players that were signed this offseason can be traded, we look ahead to the most likely candidates to be traded on the Atlanta Hawks roster.

The Atlanta Hawks currently sit at a record of 6-21 before Friday night’s game against the surging Boston Celtics.

While Trae Young has shown flashes and John Collins looks to be a star on the rise, the Hawks are in full-on rebuild (or should I say tank) mode in the 2018-19 season. As such, there are multiple solid players on the roster that are making the team better in-game when that’s not necessarily the goal of this season.

Many teams around the league need help at various positions as they try to shore up rotations ahead of potential playoff runs. Some teams (Jazz, Rockets, Pelicans) are underperforming relative to expectations and others (Hornets, Magic) could use some more depth as they attempt to make a rare playoff push.

That’s where the Atlanta Hawks come in. With multiple veterans who would contending teams get better, the Hawks should be listening for many trade deals for these players as long as the return is solid.

Let’s take a look at the 4 players that are most likely to get traded on the Atlanta Hawks.
