Atlanta Hawks GM Onsi Saleh is making history by learning from past mistakes, avoiding repeats with small guards in the 2026 NBA Draft. Drafting Darius Acuff could mirror Trae Youngs scoring struggles in deep playoffs. Salehs January trade for CJ McCollum freed cap space and started a new era. Now, the Hawks are thriving in a tight playoff series with the Knicks, proving Salehs move right. The Hawks strategy of pounding the paint on Jalen Brunson, using size to expose his defensive limits, has been effective. Salehs smart play is acquiring versatile talent like Kingston Flemings, a solid defender who shares the ball without playoff headaches. If the draft lottery doesnt land a top-four pick, expect Saleh to continue building a balanced team ready for the long haul.
