Trade Analysis

Atlanta Hawks Perspective

The deal exchanged Mark Workman for cash and the rights to Don Sunderlage, with draft rights forming a central part of the return. The Hawks converted the deal into a substantially better on-court or asset result.

Golden State Warriors Perspective

The exchange of Mark Workman for cash; rights to Don Sunderlage produced roughly balanced retrospective value. Golden State received Mark Workman and sent cash; rights to Don Sunderlage. The two sides received broadly comparable value once role, longevity, draft outcomes and context are considered. The D+ Warriors grade reflects realized production, role, timing and downstream asset value; the D+ the other team grade measures what Atlanta Hawks obtained from the same transaction. The judgment is retrospective and does not assume that every later draft outcome was predictable on the trade date.
