Atlanta Hawks pull off a bold three-team trade, landing Luguentz Dort from OKC while sending Zaccharie Risacher to Dallas — a move that shakes up their roster and starting lineup. Risacher’s inconsistent second season, especially in high-stakes games, made him expendable, while the Thunder clear cap space to avoid the luxury tax. Dort’s elite defense and limited offense make him a perfect bench weapon for Atlanta, especially as Nickeil Alexander-Walker emerges as the frontrunner for starting guard, thanks to his MVP-caliber improvement and clutch plays. The Hawks now have two former Thunder championship players — a defensive upgrade and a new spark in their rotation.
