“There has been a lot of chatter and stuff throughout the offseason, and not a lot of it has been about us,” Trae said. “We all heard about it. We’re very eager to go out there and play and have fun and try to shock the world again.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
The Hawks are particularly confident that the return of De’Andre Hunter and Cam Reddish will improve the defense, last year’s No.18 in the league with 112.1 points allowed for 100 possessions.<\/p>\n
“If we have all the guys healthy, it is going to be different,” Bogdanovic said. “We know we’re a deep team, and we know we have a lot of guys that can play on both ends of the floor. We need every single one of us, especially Cam and Dre.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
The Hawks changed very little in the summer, confirming 11 players and adding Gorgui Dieng, Delon Wright and rookies Jalen Johnson and Sharife Cooper.<\/p>\n
Atlanta also signed Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot and Jahlil Okafor, but their contracts are not guaranteed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
