The Hawks reportedly added forward Caleb Houstan to the team.
According to a report from HoopsHype, the team signed Houstan to a one-year deal.
Drafted 32nd overall (second round) in the 2022 NBA draft by the Magic, Houstan is a career 37.2% 3-point shooter. He became a free agent this summer after the Magic did not pick up his club option last month.
Houstan provides the Hawks with even more shooting after knocking down 50.7% of his 3-point shots after the All-Star break last season.
A 6-foot-8 wing forward, Houstan moves well without the ball and will give the Hawks another player who can space the floor. He also has a solid motor on the defensive side of the ball and with a wingspan of 7 feet, he can disrupt plays.
Here’s where the Hawks’ roster stands now.
