The Braves are reportedly hoping to pursue Red Sox pitcher Sonny Gray, but Boston's recent surge could keep them from trading away the 36-year-old starting pitcher.

With Angel Reese missing her first game of the season with an ankle injury, the Atlanta Dream fell to expansion Portland Fire for their sixth loss in their last seven games.

The weekend also brought more lousy injury luck for Braves, and Angel Reese says no respect for Atlanta Dream in All-Star snubs.

While their Eastern Conference rivals made blockbuster additions, the Atlanta Hawks stay quiet — betting on chemistry and growth to boost their 2026-27 season.

Also, Hawks guard Buddy Hield remained on the roster after Sunday’s deadline, so his $9.66 million contract is fully guaranteed for 2026-27.

The Atlanta Hawks should look to target veteran wings and a center, avoid big contracts, and build depth after the draft under president Onsi Saleh.

The Hawks drafted Trae Young’s potential replacement, Kingston Flemings, at No. 8. While he isn’t likely to become an elite playmaker, he has size and athleticism.

The NBA draft's top center prospects aren’t good fits for the Hawks roster that team president Onsi Saleh has constructed.

According to Transfermarkt, the market value of Spain's players is about $600 million. For Cape Verde, it’s $18 million. Yet, on this day, Cape Verde played Spain to a draw.

There is a big gap between the Hawks and Knicks; addition to Angel Reese’s game is a minus.
