Atlanta Hawks News

Quin Snyder on working with Dyson Daniels when he got here: “Sometimes you need someone to believe in you. I think he knows that I do.”

Dyson Daniels says an extension was always going to happen before the deadline. I asked how involved in the process he gets.

Dyson Daniels on working with Onsi Saleh: “He was the first person I met when I walked into this building.”

I asked Jalen Johnson if he and the team told Dyson Daniels dinner was on him now, following the extension. “Immediately yesterday, I called congratulating him, but dinner's on him. He got the tab.” Then I asked if he picked a restaurant. Said he has to find the most expensive.

8 years in, and as cold as ever 🥶

There is a new episode of @ATLand29 up today.

ATL students are here today for @joinway_ with @KillerMike and @StandTogether! 👏

1st Year in the A, let's get it 🦄

the hawks play a game that counts tomorrow i'd say it's a good time to jump on board with the pod

Onsi on Dyson:

Dyson's first season in Atlanta: 🇦🇺 Most Improved Player 🇦🇺 Defensive Player of the Year runner-up 🇦🇺 All-Defensive First Team member 🇦🇺 NBA-leading 3.01 steals per game 🇦🇺 Franchise-record 229 steals Just getting started

And the Hawks make the Dyson Daniels extension is official.

DYSON STAYING IN THE 🅰️

Dyson Daniels extension is now official. Hawks GM Onsi Saleh: “We are beyond thrilled to reach a long-term deal with Dyson, and we are excited to watch him continue to grow with our group. This extension reflects our belief in him today and into the future.”

Note: We do not know the structure on the Dyson Daniels extension yet. With that said, if you start a 4/100 deal as low as possible, it would be: ~$22.3M in 2026-27 ~$24.1M in 27-28 ~$25.9M in 28-29 ~$27.7M in 29-30 Never exceeding ~14.4% of the projected cap

I was also a "yes" on Dyson Daniels, which was looking dicey as of this morning. Good deal for both sides

Full breakdown to come on the @LockedOnHawks podcast tonight. Daniels secures the life-changing money but also gets to hit free agency again at the age of 27. Hawks get him locked in at a strong value price that should be helpful in overall team-building.

Atlanta Hawks All-Defensive guard Dyson Daniels has agreed to a four-year, $100 million rookie contract extension with the franchise, agent Daniel Moldovan of Lighthouse Sports Management tells ESPN.

Wallace also quipped: "I want to thank especially my teammates just for trusting me when I'm on the court now. All that 'Hey, hey! Give me the ball. Let me see the ball.' I ain't got to do all of that no more, you know? They just trust me to be the QB on the floor."
