It’s official - Frank Kaminsky is in the fold and is expected to add frontcourt depth for the Hawks in the 2022-23 season.
Kaminsky, who the team signed at the veteran minimum, played only nine games with the Suns last season before he was ruled out indefinitely with a stress reaction in his right knee. He had surgery and has since recovered.
A former college national player of the year at Wisconsin, the 7-foot Kaminsky was the ninth overall pick in the 2015 NBA draft and has averaged 9.4 points and 4.1 rebounds in his seven-year career. He’s a career 34.8% shooter from 3-point range and was solid for the Suns - on offense and defense - in a backup role during their run to the 2021 NBA Finals.
