Losses: Danilo Gallinari (trade), Kevin Huerter (trade, Kings), Delon Wright (Wizards), Kevin Knox (Pistons), Gorgui Dieng (Spurs), Lou Williams (Louuuuuuuu).
LINEUP
C: Clint Capela — if this Box Score King completely changes everything about his approach to defense, the Hawks could make a run this season.
PF: John Collins — a 20-point scorer on most other teams, here playing the nice guy. Responds to his teammates looking the other way with stuff like this: John had only 60 turnovers in 54 games last season.
SF: De’Andre Hunter — marvelous two-way counterpart that I’m not going to count on being there until it happens two years in a row.
