Hawks’ bold move pays off with Alexander-Walker

Nickeil Alexander-Walker is proving the Atlanta Hawks right for finally letting him run the offense. After years of being seen as just a defensive player, he’s now showing off his skills as a creator and slasher—something he flashed back in college but rarely got to do in the NBA. The front office’s decision to trust him (and save money by not signing another backup point guard) is looking smarter every game. With the Hawks staying flexible under the salary cap, this could open doors for even bigger moves. What do you think—should more teams take risks like this? #Sports #Basketball #AtlantaHawks

Jalen Johnson & Risacher: Atlanta’s new dynamic duo

Atlanta fans, it’s starting to look like the Hawks have quietly found a frontcourt combo that could define their future. Jalen Johnson and Zaccharie Risacher are building real chemistry, even as injuries and a tough schedule test the team. Risacher’s shooting numbers might not pop right now, but his off-ball movement and relentless work ethic are winning over teammates and coaches. Johnson’s leadership and belief in Risacher’s potential are making a difference, too. If these two keep growing together, Atlanta could have something special brewing. What do you think—can this partnership take the Hawks to the next level? #Sports #Basketball #AtlantaHawks

How Trae Young’s move changed the Hawks

Atlanta’s season has taken a real turn thanks to Trae Young’s behind-the-scenes push to bring Nickeil Alexander-Walker to the Hawks. For just $15 million a year, Atlanta landed a player who’s stepped up as a defensive anchor and a surprisingly strong offensive option—especially with injuries piling up. This kind of smart, value-driven signing is exactly what teams need under the new NBA rules, where depth matters more than stacking superstars. Alexander-Walker’s impact is clear: he’s become the Hawks’ second-best player after Jalen Johnson. What do you think—can this kind of move really set up a championship run? #Sports #Basketball #AtlantaHawks

Josh Smith — One of the Most Underrated Two-Way Forwards of His Era

At his peak, Josh Smith was an absolute force — a freak athlete who could defend all over the floor, swat shots into the stands, and throw down jaw-dropping dunks in transition. He averaged 18.8 PPG, 9.6 RPG, 3.5 APG, 2.1 BPG, and 1.3 SPG in his best season — doing a bit of everything for the Atlanta Hawks. He was a rare blend of size, speed, and defensive instincts, earning All-Defensive honors and becoming one of the youngest players ever to hit 1,000 career blocks. In today’s game, with better spacing and shooting development, he might’ve been even more dominant. #JoshSmith #NBA #NBALegends #TwoWayPlayer #BasketballHistory #AtlantaHawks #Sports
