The NBA is considering expansion, with Las Vegas and Seattle in the running for new teams. This could lead to an expansion draft for the Atlanta Hawks, where new teams pick unprotected players from existing rosters. The Hawks must decide which players to shield, with young stars like Jalen Johnson, Dyson Daniels, and Nickeil Alexander-Walker likely to be protected. Other potential protectors include Onyeka Okongwu, Jonathan Kuminga, and prospects like Zaccharie Risacher and Asa Newell. The Hawks may also consider leaving out players like Buddy Hield or Corey Kispert to shed salary or clear spots. The teams choices could significantly impact their future, sparking debates on who stays and goes amid expansion buzz.
