Trade Analysis

Atlanta Hawks Perspective

Atlanta exchanged Hawks' agreement not to exercise their right of first refusal on free agent Billy Paultz for 1985 third round pick (#59-Sedric Toney). Atlanta's return was serviceable, but the other team received the slightly stronger basketball outcome.

Utah Jazz Perspective

Utah wanted Billy Paultz and paid a third-rounder to stop Atlanta from matching. Paultz gave Utah 15 minutes a night as a 36-year-old backup. The third became Sedric Toney, who played 88 games. Small win for Utah's depth.
