Knicks & Hawks Swap Role Players, Picks in 1st Big Trade of 2022

Reunited! New York swung a deal to acquire Cam Reddish, the former college teammate of star guard R.J. Barrett. In order to get him, the Knicks sent Kevin Knox and a 1st-round pick to the Atlanta Hawks. It’s the first big trade of 2022 with the NBA trade deadline (Feb. 10) just around the corner.

 

Trade Details

Hawks Get: Kevin Knox, 2022 1st-Round Pick

Knicks Get: Cam Reddish, Solomon Hill, 2025 2nd-Round Pick

 

Reddish was once a top-10 pick back in 2019, but the sharpshooter has often been underutilized in Atlanta. He’s averaging 11.9 points per game this season while playing less minutes than his first two campaigns.
