The Hawks lost two players Tuesday, as NBA free agency progresses.
Tony Snell agreed to a one-year deal with Portland, per ESPN, and Nathan Knight agreed to a two-way contract with the Timberwolves, per Hoopshype. Deals can’t become official, however, until 12:01 p.m. Friday.
Knight was on a two-way contract for the Hawks last season and played sparingly, though he threw down a few impressive dunks during his time in Atlanta. He was slated to play for the Hawks’ Summer League team.
Snell averaged 5.3 points in 21.1 minutes per game, and was a good 3-point sharpshooter, shooting 56.9% from beyond the arc. In one of his biggest moments for the Hawks, he made a buzzer-beater game-winning 3-pointer to give the Hawks a 121-120 win vs. the Raptors on March 11, off an assist from Trae Young.
