Unseen Shifts: Which NBA Players Could Suddenly Become Game-Changers After the Trade Deadline?
Gueye has struggled mightily with his shot, hitting just 4 of 27 3s. And there’s a chance Georges Niang, who came over in the Hunter trade, is a better fit with a starting lineup that doesn’t currently have a single player shooting 34% or better on 3-point attempts.
But Gueye has flashed the kind of defensive potential the Hawks need to make up for Trae Young’s limitations. He’s already ranked in the top 50 in defensive DRIP. If he can even get his outside shooting close to average – and his small sample in the G-League suggests it’s possible – Gueye could be a huge find for the Hawks.
