Atlanta
2026–2027 Season
Icons who defined the franchise's identity
Numbers raised to the rafters forever
The Atlanta Hawks' history spans three cities, beginning as the Tri-Cities Blackhawks in 1946. The franchise relocated to Milwaukee in 1951 and then to St. Louis in 1955, where Bob Pettit led them to the 1958 NBA championship. The Hawks moved to Atlanta in 1968, where Dominique Wilkins — "The Human Highlight Film" — became the franchise's most iconic player during the 1980s and '90s. The 2015 Hawks achieved a franchise-best 60-22 record with four All-Stars. Trae Young emerged as the franchise cornerstone, leading the Hawks to the 2021 Eastern Conference Finals. The franchise continues to build around young talent in one of the NBA's fastest-growing markets.

Lou Hudson spent 11 seasons as the Atlanta Hawks most reliable scorer — a six-time All-Star whose fluid, effortless game earned him the nickname Sweet Lou and a retired #23 that honors a decade of professional excellence.
The Human Highlight Film. A 1986 scoring title, the 1988 dunk-contest duel with Jordan, 47 points in a Game 7 loss to Bird. Why the Hawks retired Dominique Wilkins' #21.
Bob Pettit scored 50 points in Game 6 to win the 1958 NBA championship — the only title in franchise history. His #9 hangs in the rafters as proof of what one great player can accomplish on the game greatest stage.
