## Resource

The Atlanta Hawks have the makings of a playoff contender with Jalen Johnson leading the charge, but they’re still missing that one perimeter star to truly compete in the East. CJ McCollum brings scoring and playoff experience, but without a true go-to guard who can stretch the floor and take over games, they remain just short of elite status. With solid role players and young talent on the rise, the front office must aggressively pursue a perimeter threat via trade — or risk being overlooked by the conference’s top teams.
