Yet I've received no indication to this point that the Hawks have designs on pursuing Antetokounmpo via trade this summer. Sources say that Atlanta is not eager to splurge for major roster additions, preferring to focus on internal improvement and addressing the futures of CJ McCollum and Jonathan Kuminga along with coach Quin Snyder (who has only one season left on his current contract).

Brad Rowland: CJ McCollum got asked if he talked to Quin and Onsi about his Hawks future. He smiled big and said “The season just ended, my boy.” Added that he hadn’t met with Quin yet but had a “productive conversation” with the front office guys.

Kevin Chouinard: Quin Snyder: “I thought their physicality was significant. And we made some mistakes. We had breakdowns. We didn't make shots. They did. It was a perfect storm.”
Addressing the future of coach Quin Snyder, whose contract has only one season remaining after this one. Snyder, remember, was one of five NBA head coaches under contract that the Knicks unsuccessfully requested permission to speak to last June after the dismissal of Tom Thibodeau along with Dallas' Jason Kidd, Houston's Ime Udoka, Minnesota's Chris Finch and then-Chicago coach Billy Donovan. Snyder did not receive an extension in the immediate aftermath of New York's approach like Udoka, Donovan and ultimately Kidd, but extension talks are mostly certainly expected soon after this season … whether or not Atlanta can keep it going Thursday night.

The Hawks were one of this season's true surprise teams and league sources say there is strong front office support for Snyder to receive a new deal. He steered Atlanta to a 20-6 record after the All-Star break and the trades that shipped out Trae Young and Kristaps Porziņģis, with a 46-36 mark ranking as the Hawks' most successful regular season since the 41-31 team in 2020-21 that went all the way to the Eastern Conference finals.

Oh No He Didn't: Quin Snyder on Kuminga: "Jonathan's just been all in...tonight he did some things that really gave our team a lift. I think the biggest thing he's done is he's just defended. Another guy that's in there competing and defending"

Hawks PR: Hawks Head Coach Quin Snyder has recorded his 500th regular season career win. He becomes 41st coach in NBA history to reach 500 wins and the sixth active.

Lauren L. Williams: Snyder came into tonight's postgame with wet hair, so it looks like the players got him with a water shower for his 500th win, "It was special. It's cool, you realize that coaches, keep going up here, but it's really the players & the other people that allow for that to happen."

Kevin Chouinard: Final: Hawks 123, Kings 113 Alexander-Walker: 27 pts, 8 ast Johnson: 26 pts, 10 reb Landale: 19 pts, 13 reb Quin Snyder gets his 500th career win

Marc J Spears: Knicks head coach Mike Brown reached 500 wins with a victory at Brooklyn tonight and became the 40th coach in NBA history to reach that mark. Hawks head coach Quin Snyder also has 496 career coaching wins.
