The Atlanta Hawks come into the 2017 Summer looking to make changes and recast the organization and culture. These five players could help do that.

1. J.J Redick. Now I know what some of you may be thinking; Why would the Hawks sign a guy whose game has declined in years past? The answer is quite simple. Redick is a force to be reckoned with around the perimeter, and anyone who argues that just needs to look at the facts. In his NBA career with the Orlando Magic and the Los Angeles Clippers, Redick has averaged 44% from the field, 41.5% behind the three-point line, and averages 24 MPG with his last four seasons reaching over 28 MPG. This is the kind of guy who can fill the void of Kyle Korver, and do so with ease.
