The Atlanta Hawks are among several teams expressing interest in trading for Clint Capela, sources tell Shams Charania of The Athletic.

The Hawks have been active on the trade market seeking a center. The Hawks have also explored trades for Andre Drummond, Dewayne Dedmon and Steven Adams.

The Houston Rockets previously shopped Capela during the 2019 offseason.

Chandler Parsons remains in the first stage of the NBA’s concussion protocol and has not progressed to exertional challenges, such as light conditioning.

Additionally, Parsons continues to receive treatment for symptoms of whiplash and the associated cervical disc injury. After discussing with Parsons, his medical team and the doctors at Emory Sports Medicine, it was agreed by all parties that it would be best for Parsons’ recovery for him to return home to California and continue to recover and rehabilitate under the treatment of a team of doctors and therapists overseen by the Hawks and Emory Sports Medicine staff.

The Atlanta Hawks were close to trading for Andre Drummond with an offer of Chandler Parsons and a 2020 first round pick from the Brooklyn Nets to the Detroit Pistons.

The Hawks, however, were unwilling to ultimately add the pick because Drummond's contract extension demands were too high for them.

Drummond is on a $27 million contract this season and is scheduled to earn $28.7 million next season if he were to opt in. 

While the center position has been devalued in recent seasons, Drummond could be one of the more attractive players in a limited free agent market in 2020.

Chandler Parsons may have suffered career-ending injuries during last week's automobile accident. The accident was allegedly caused by a drunk driver.

The law firm Morgan & Morgan, however, said Monday in a statement that Parsons "suffered multiple severe and permanent injuries including a traumatic brain injury, disc herniation and a torn labrum."

Parsons has been plagued by chronic knee injuries since signing a four-year, $94.8 million deal with the Memphis Grizzlies in July 2016, appearing in just 100 games in four-plus seasons over that stretch. Parsons has played in just five games this season with the Atlanta Hawks.

"Chandler is having a difficult time accepting the consequences of the defendant's reckless conduct on the roadway," Morgan & Morgan said.

"Chandler was in peak physical condition at the time of the wreck. He is now working with a team of doctors to regain his health, and at this time, his ability to return to play is unclear. Our focus right now is on helping him make a full recovery, while we also work to hold any and all responsible parties fully accountable."

Luka Doncic reiterated his stance he thought he would be drafted by the Sacramento Kings.

“They came to Madrid (to see him play for Real Madrid and to share a dinner on June 5, 2018)," Doncic told The Athletic about the Kings’ contingent’s visit during the draft process. “They came with the owner. Everybody came, so I honestly thought they were going to pick me.”

Doncic was then asked if it has been made clear to him why they decided to draft Marvin Bagley instead of him at No. 2 in 2018.

“I mean, I think it’s because of Euroleague; it’s different basketball,” Doncic said. “I was averaging in Europe — in the Spanish League — like 12 points (per game). And in Euroleague 14 (points per game). So it’s different basketball.”

The Atlanta Hawks have broken off talks with the Detroit Pistons on Andre Drummond, but could continue to seek an established center on the trade market.

The Hawks have interest in Steven Adams and talks with the Oklahoma City Thunder could "potentially pick up steam as the deadline looms" sources tell Chris Haynes of Yahoo! Sports. 

Adams signed a four-year, $100 million contract extension with the Thunder in 2016. Adams will be a free agent in 2021.

The Hawks have all of their own first round picks in addition to a 2020 from the Nets and a 2022 from the Thunder.

The Atlanta Hawks have broken off trade talks with the Detroit Pistons on Andre Drummond.

Both sides were optimistic a deal could eventually be agreed upon involving Drummond.

The Hawks will instead remain patient with options available to them to improve at the draft and during free agency.

Detroit would have received Damian Jones, Chandler Parsons or Allen Crabbe (who was dealt to Minnesota on Thursday) and a first-round pick for Drummond.

Drummond is expected to be come a free agent and decline his $28.8 million player option for 20-21.

The Pistons are still fielding trade calls on Drumond.

The Hawks have all of their own first round picks in addition to a 2020 from the Nets and a 2022 from the Thunder.

The Atlanta Hawks have acquired Jeff Teague and Treveon Graham from the Minnesota Timberwolves for Allen Crabbe.

Teague will serve as Trae Young's backup for the Hawks.

Teague previously played for the Hawks before he was traded to the Indiana Pacers. Teague is in the final season of a three-year, $57 million deal.

Crabbe signed a four-year, $74.8 million deal in 2016 and will be a free agent this offseason. The deal also creates an open roster spot for the Wolves that can help facilitate another trade before the deadline. 

Trae Young and Luka Doncic will forever be linked by the draft night trade between the Atlanta Hawks and Dallas Mavericks. Young offered his own assessment on the deal with approximately a season and a half of sample size.

"[Doncic's] on a team, and they've got more veterans and is a team that's more looking to win now," Young told Bleacher Report. "We're more of a team that wants to win now, but we're focusing more on developing, and we're one of the youngest teams in the league. It's just two totally different situations, so it's just hard to really judge who won or lost [the trade] right now. I don't really pay too much attention to it. I just try and focus on my team and how I can help my team. Maybe down the road at the end of our careers, I think that can be a topic of discussion, but right now, I don't pay too much attention to it."

The Hawks used the additional draft pick they acquired from the Mavericks to select Cam Reddish.

While Young has played at an All-Star level this season, Doncic has been in the MVP conversation.

"I want to bring a championship, I mean multiple championships, to the city of Atlanta," Young told Bleacher Report. "I think the fans and this city deserves it. It's a super dope cultural city, and they just deserve a championship with the Hawks. That would be great to have. For me, if I was able to do that, I think that would be a pretty big thing in my story."

The Atlanta Hawks have tried to upgrade the center position this season and have been linked with Andre Drummond and Dewayne Demond.

According to Michael Scotto of Bleacher Report, the Hawks have also expressed interest in trading for Jakob Poeltl of the San Antonio Spurs.

Poeltl is in his second season with the Spurs.
