Gallinari had a down year for the Hawks, averaging just 11.7 points and 4.7 rebounds in 66 appearances as the team's backup 4 behind the talented John Collins.

That corresponded with the Hawks—who surprisingly reached the Eastern Conference Finals a year ago—struggling in general, going just 43-39 on the year, though they did reach the postseason.

Given the presence of Trae Young, Collins and a slew of talented and versatile wings, a turnaround for the Hawks is expected. But the team taking steps to reshape the roster around its two best players is hardly a surprise given those struggles.

"Everything is harder. My lunches and dinners taste worse. Going to sleep is harder. Everything is worse when you lose," Collins told The Athletic's Chris Kirschner in January when his own name was making the rounds in trade rumors. "When you win, it covers up a lot of s--t. When you lose, it uncovers a lot of s--t. When you lose, you want the situation to be fixed and figure out a way to handle it, but I know a lot of s--t starts to eke out when you lose like we have. That’s the type of s--t that happens when you're losing. It's part of the job."

As for Gallinari, his best basketball is probably behind him, but the Italian is still a solid stretch-4 who can provide quality bench minutes and offer a boost on the offensive end. Defensively, he's more of a liability, but that's mitigated somewhat in a more limited role.
