The Atlanta Hawks have been busy as the NBA Trade Deadline approaches, but they didn't budge on a Daniel Gafford deal.

In this NBA mock trade, the Atlanta Hawks send Kristaps Porzingis to the Los Angeles Lakers, pairing him up with LeBron James and Luka Doncic.

The lead-up to the NBA trade deadline continued its frenzied pace on Wednesday night. The Hawks acquired Jonathan Kuminga and Buddy Hield from the Warriors in exchange for Kristaps Porzingis, ESPN’s Shams Charania reported.

Timing is everything with NBA trades, and the Warriors found that out the hard way this week.

Markkanen has cashed the Over in back-to-back contests, dropping 27 points in each. He’s also hit the Over in five of his previous seven appearances. These last two games were both on the road, and Utah is at the Atlanta Hawks tonight.

Hawks forward Jalen Johnson is an NBA All-Star. On Sunday, the league named the reserves for this season’s NBA All-Star Game based on votes from the league’s coaches. Johnson, who is in the midst of a career-best season, has emerged as the primary playmaker of the Hawks and one of the team’s most important players.

The Chicago Bulls might be bracing for a nosedive. After years of relative reticence at the NBA trade deadline, executive vice president of basketball operations Artūras Karnišovas came into this week swinging.
