In this story:

Even the most diehard NBA fans could be excused if they lost track of where some of their favorite players ended up this offseason. This is especially true for the Atlanta Hawks. Due to the hardship contracts used last winter, no team in league history ever had a larger roster.

Couple the unusual nature of last season with a major roster shakeup this summer, and there are former Hawks players all over the league. Below is an update on where some of the departed players are now.
