The Atlanta Hawks announced the firing of general manager Landry Fields, promoting Onsi Saleh to the position to manage daily basketball operations. With a disappointing season finishing 40-42, the Hawks did not qualify for the playoffs for the second consecutive year. Principal owner Tony Ressler emphasized the need for improved organizational operations and strategic leadership as they prepare for major offseason decisions. Saleh, formerly with the Golden State Warriors, is expected to provide direction alongside the existing front office.
As we enter this pivotal offseason, we have several complex decisions ahead of us, and we are committed to providing the human and financial resources needed to ensure that we navigate these decisions with a high level of precision and foresight.
Landry made our franchise better and left contributions that have positioned us for growth. I am grateful for his dedication and wish him success in his next endeavor.
