Hawks 2024-25 Outlook & Players to Watch

The Hawks starting lineup appears set in two spots – point guard (Trae Young) andd forward (Jalen Johnson). Center could be another, but there have been plenty of trade rumors around Clint Capela in the final season of his contract.

Top backup Onyeka Okongwu could finally make the leap to starter if the Hawks feel his size will not be a detriment.

Shooting guard and the other forward spot are mysteries.

Newcomer Dyson Daniels could slot in as the key active piece of the return from trading Dejounte Murray to the New Orleans Pelicans. That would allow Bogdan Bogdanovic to remain in a bench role.

The other forward spot could go to incumbent De’Andre Hunter or rookie No. 1 overall pick of the 2024 NBA Draft Zaccharie Risacher.

Risacher could also slot in at the 2 spot, adding intrigue around the Hawks’ starting lineup.
