Hawks Grab Tony Bradley to Beef Up the Middle Before Playoffs
The Atlanta Hawks made a move Monday to shore up their frontcourt depth, signing center Tony Bradley as they gear up for their playoff push. Bradley, a 6-foot-10 veteran in his eighth NBA season, spent most of this year with the Indiana Pacers after starting the season with Atlanta's College Park G League affiliate.
What Bradley Brings to Atlanta
In 38 games with Indiana this season, Bradley averaged 4 points and 2.8 rebounds, including three starts. He's not a flashy scorer, but he's a guy who knows how to play in the playoffs. Bradley has 20 career playoff games under his belt and has also suited up for Utah, Philadelphia, Oklahoma City, and Chicago during his NBA journey. For a Hawks team sitting fifth in the Eastern Conference heading into Monday night's matchup against the New York Knicks, adding another body in the middle could be exactly what they need down the stretch.

To clear space for Bradley, Atlanta requested waivers on forward Caleb Houstan. Houstan had signed a two-way contract with the Hawks back in October 2025, which was converted to a standard deal in February. He appeared in 18 games this season, averaging 2.3 points. The move signals that Atlanta is looking to optimize their roster composition as the playoffs approach.
The Hawks head into their Monday night showdown with the Knicks looking to solidify their position in the East. With Bradley now in the fold, Atlanta has another option to lean on when the games matter most.
