Trade Analysis
The Hawks Chose Immediate Player Depth
Atlanta converted a future selection and cash into Hamilton. The canonical grade does not indicate that Hamilton became a major long-term asset, but the Hawks did receive an NBA player they could use immediately.
Phoenix Took Draft Capital and Cash
The expansion Suns received two forms of value: a third-round selection and an undisclosed financial payment. The unknown cash figure limits the precision of any hindsight comparison.
Equal C+ Grades Fit the Evidence
TradeVerdicts assigns both clubs a C+. Atlanta received immediate depth while Phoenix received a pick and cash, and the surviving record does not support a meaningful enough difference to declare a winner.
Final Verdict
Even Trade — St. Louis C+, Phoenix C+. Atlanta acquired Dennis Hamilton from Suns in exchange for 1969 third round pick (#39-Lloyd Kerr); cash.
