Hawks continue making moves, send Vit Krejci to Blazers

The Atlanta Hawks have continued to navigate the trade deadline with marginal moves, this time moving Vit Krejci to the Portland Trail Blazers in exchange for Duop Reath and two second-round picks, as reported by ESPN’s Shams Charania.

Krejci, a 6-foot-9 guard forward that has a sweet shooting stroke, is currently averaging 9 points and 2.2 3-pointers made per game on 42.3% shooting, which ranks top 20 in the NBA.

According to ESPN insider Bobby Marks, the move allows the Hawks to create roster space, and Atlanta now has seven future second-round picks at their disposal.

ANALYSIS: Atlanta is currently in their transition phase after trading away longtime franchise cornerstone Trae Young to the Washington Wizards last month, fully committing to building around first-time all-star Jalen Johnson and core pieces like Nickeil Alexander-Walker and Onyeka Okongwu, among others. Reath will be a backup big alongside Mo Gueye in the Hawks’ frontcourt, which also includes rookie Asa Newell.

For the Blazers, they acquire a young piece in Krejci that can help with floor spacing as well as additional back up ball handling duties.
