Washington Wizards Trade Anthony Gill to Atlanta Hawks

The Atlanta Hawks have acquired Anthony Gill from the Washington Wizards in exchange for a future second-round pick.

Gill is a 6-foot-7 forward who has spent the past three seasons with the Wizards. He averaged 4.7 points and 4.5 rebounds per game last season.

The trade is a minor one, but it could have some implications for both teams.

For the Wizards, it opens up a roster spot for another player. The team is reportedly interested in signing free agent forward Otto Porter Jr., so Gill's departure could make room for him.

For the Hawks, Gill adds some depth to their frontcourt. The team lost John Collins to free agency this summer, so Gill could help fill some of the void left by his departure.

Gill is a solid defender and rebounder, and he can also hit the occasional three-pointer. He's not a star, but he's a good role player who can contribute in a variety of ways.

The trade is a low-risk, high-reward move for the Hawks. If Gill can stay healthy and contribute, he could be a valuable addition to the team.
