Summary
The Atlanta Hawks made a dramatic move, firing GM Landry Fields and promoting Onsi Saleh, following a disappointing 40-42 season and an overtime loss in the play-in tournament. The changes come after Tyler Herro's 30-point heroics in an overtime win against the Hawks, who refused to back down all night. Fields, who led the team since 2020 but failed to secure playoff success, was thanked for his contributions, while Saleh, with a background at Golden State and San Antonio, steps in to overhaul the front office as they aim for improvement.
