## Resource

The Hawks just traded for Lu Dort, hoping to pair him with Nickeil Alexander-Walker and Dyson Daniels for a lockdown defense — but playoff stats raise eyebrows: OKC outscored opponents by 14.72 points when Dort was off the floor, but dipped to -0.71 when he played. Compare that to Cason Wallace, whose presence lifted the team’s net rating by 10.22 — suggesting OKC may have moved Dort for younger talent. The debate? Dort might be more effective off the bench, like Wallace was — and now the Hawks must decide how to keep him without sabotaging their team’s rhythm.
