Lakers land Luke Kennard for Gabe Vincent, boosting shooting

The Lakers traded Gabe Vincent to the Atlanta Hawks for sharpshooter Luke Kennard and a 2032 second-round pick. Kennard is shooting a league-best 49.7% from three this season off the bench and is expected to space the floor for LeBron James, Anthony Davis and Austin Reaves. The move is viewed as a marginal upgrade, with LA planning no more deals today and eyeing a bigger summer splash using about $60 million in cap space and multiple first-round picks (2026, 2031, 2032).

Jazz land Lonzo Ball, Cavs draft picks in three-team swap; Landale to Hawks

The Utah Jazz reached a three-team deal to acquire Lonzo Ball and two Cavaliers second-round picks while sending Jock Landale to the Atlanta Hawks for cash. Ball will be waived after the trade and is eligible to sign with any team except Cleveland. The Cavaliers, looking to trim payroll and avoid second-apron penalties, save substantial luxury-tax money and gain draft capital, while Utah gains asset leverage via a trade exception to absorb Ball’s contract. Landale provides Atlanta with frontcourt depth as injuries mount, with the Hawks likely to waive a player to clear roster space.

Blazers Fetch Vit Krejci from Hawks in Reath-for-Picks Swap

Portland acquires guard Vit Krejci from Atlanta in exchange for center Duop Reath and two future second-round picks (including Atlanta’s own 2027 pick back and a Knicks 2030 pick). Krejci, averaging 9.0 points and 2.2 three-pointers per game this season, gives Portland a welcomed 3-point threat as Reath heads to Atlanta after season-ending foot surgery; the deal also sparks questions about how Caleb Love and Sidy Cissoko’s two-way contracts will be handled.

Trae Young's Dice Roll Taunt Fuels Hawks' NBA Cup Semifinal Surge

Trae Young continued to cement his status as a villain at Madison Square Garden by trolling the New York Knicks after the Atlanta Hawks' 108-100 NBA Cup quarterfinal win.
