## Resource

The Atlanta Hawks’ projected 2026-27 starting five is set to feature CJ McCollum at point guard, Nickeil Alexander-Walker at shooting guard, Dyson Daniels at small forward, Jalen Johnson at power forward, and Onyeka Okongwu at center — a lineup that’s expected but not without intrigue. The real battle is on the wing: while Daniels brings elite defense, Luguentz Dort’s elite three-point shooting (34% last year) and Aaron Wiggins’ consistency from deep (38% career) could force rotation changes. With Jalen Johnson’s limited range, spacing will be key — making this depth a luxury problem, not a concern. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
