Grade Acquired F David Roddy from the Phoenix Suns in exchange for F E.J. Liddell.
Your grade joins the crowd-sourced Fan Verdict.
Hawks traded for Roddy but immediately waived him—a clear indictment of fit. Five headline sources confirm Roddy bounced to Denver's two-way deal within days. The instant waiver signals Atlanta saw minimal NBA rotation value in the swap. Fans questioned why the Hawks made the trade if they didn't want him. Atlanta will likely develop younger talent instead of investing in marginal wing depth.
