    But why tho? Either way Quin taking us all the way next year šŸ˜ˆ

  2. Embarrassed_Ad6585

    Cap is going up so this will probably look like a steal, assuming he returns to a semblance of health

  3. please beat the washed allegations šŸ™šŸ¼

  4. Consistent_Pair_6740

    Why not just keep Huerter? And I hope this means we are trading Dre

  5. SimplyElite-

    All but signals that Collins is gone, no way they can keep bey unless they get off of his contract and it doesnā€™t really make sense to keep both

  6. FastMoneyCam

    Pour one out for the possibility of AJ getting big minutes next year

  7. Darthkdot

    Wonder what this means for AJ Griffin going forward?

  8. ArePeeAre

    i just canā€™t wrap my head around this given his injury concerns and lack of defensive ability

    [Bogdanovic](https://twitter.com/btrowland/status/1636444119684792323?s=46&t=CIxzzTY87feGzo5CXtty_w) essentially has to decline his player option to make this contract happen.

    So it is 4 years and $68 million beginning with the 2023-24 season.

    edit: from [woj](https://twitter.com/wojespn/status/1636444359024361472?s=46&t=CIxzzTY87feGzo5CXtty_w):

    Bogdanovic declines the $18M player option on his 2023-2024 contract and his new deal kicks in next season, sources tell ESPN. Bogdanovic, 30, is averaging 14 points on 40 percent three-point shooting for the Hawks this season.

    LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOO THE FLAIR STAYS ON!!! I LOVE BOGI NO CAP LMAO

  11. Acceptable-Taste-912

    Heā€™s 30 right now and regressed defensively after the injury

  12. dangheckinpupperino

    Now his salary can be used in a bigger trade, nice

  13. hollow-ataraxia

    If his knee is able to hold up then great contract especially with the cap spike, if not then I have no clue what the FO is cooking but you can definitely move off bad deals involving shooters (Washington got KP for Bertans!)

  14. This will look like shit if he can’t stay healthy, but a healthy Bogi is easily worth this. So…TBD.

  15. Intelligent-Arm8568

    Look I love Bogi but this makes no sense to me.. his knees are cooked and now we have him until heā€™s 34?

  16. WaifuWarrior215

    im pro vets so im okay with having older voices in the locker room and some continuity

  17. WzrdKelly10

    He was probably gonna walk for nothing if we didnā€™t extend him. With age and health concerns, I donā€™t see this as ā€œBogi gonna be a long time Hawkā€ but more so an asset we can use for the future.

  18. beefboy1120

    I will massage his knees every day this fall free of charge please stay healthy king

  19. nittemcen

    I love Bogi but not gonna lie I find this shocking. I thought for sure he would be gone this offseason with Bey and AJ replacing him.

  20. either this was a way to trade him when eligible thus not lose him for nothing, or Quin sees him as an essential part of the mix next season

  21. ahend1999

    its looking like this was a trade piece extension

  22. Macknsweetjones

    I think Hunter and John both gone next season. Iā€™m not mad at this move either.

  23. IceTraeDaGang

    What does this mean for Aj? Heā€™s already not getting minutes bc him and Bogi are kinda redundant is he gonna play the 3 and if so howā€™s that gonna work when we already have JJ and Bey taking those minutes? Idk this front office confuses me.

  24. Hooligan8

    $17 million a year is going to be mid-to-high end bench player money after the new CBA. Please adjust for salary inflation before dropping hot takes.

  25. tinyornithopter

    Bogi is and will always be the greatest shooter the league has ever seen. I know his knees are shot and his defense blows, but he’s one of my favorite Hawks. Although he’s not as consistent or same player mold as Kyle Korver, Bogi still hits clutch threes and makes great plays.

    Whether we trade your contract in the coming seasons or not, I’m happy to have him as a Hawk as long as he’s healthy and plays hard.

  26. Falcons__Fury

    Quin’s system must require a Bogdanovic..

  27. MacinTez

    I have absolutely no idea how the front office think this made sense but I kinda didnā€™t want bogi to leave so thereā€™s thatā€¦

  28. Current_Unlikely

    So what does this mean for Aj and Bey. Also have to wonder how this affects Collins and Deandre moving forward.This move is a little confusing , giving the timing of it. I know AJ is a rookie but his growth can be stunted with this commitment to Bogi. Maybe the Hawks see AJ more as a 3 in a reserve role, or as a replacement for Dre in the foreseeable future. Idk.

  29. Happy-Fig-5953

    Do any of you guys think this is a good sign that players like this want to stay in Atlanta, considering we have been very Mid the last 2 seasons and he could have gotten roughly the same money elsewhere?
