Zacch Risacher with a beautiful turnaround fadeaway jumper. Onyeka Okongwu hits his 3rd 3, De’Andre Hunter buries another triple. But the Spurs keep answering.
Hawks down 81-65. – 8:35 PM

More on this storyline
Jared Weiss: DeAndre Hunter is a great target for contenders who want a 5th/6th man for the next few years at fair market value, but Atlanta has been seeking a first-round pick and has been reluctant to take on long-term salary if they are going to move him. They can shave about $40 million off their books next season if they can move Hunter and Bogdanovic at the deadline for expiring deals, but that would also leave them with only six players on guaranteed deals next season. -via Bluesky / February 6, 2025
Marc Stein: The Cavaliers and Hawks remain engaged in trade talks on a De’Andre Hunter-to-Cleveland deal, league sources tell @JakeLFischer and me, with the teams attempting to build out a trade construction in which both stay under the luxury tax. -via x.com / February 6, 2025
Jake Fischer: From my understanding, there’s a pathway for Cleveland to both acquire De’Andre Hunter, and achieve another goal of dipping under the luxury tax. -via x.com / February 6, 2025
