2001–02 Atlanta Hawks season
The 2001-02 NBA season was the Hawks' 53rd season in the NBA and 34th season in Atlanta.[1] The Hawks selected Pau Gasol with the third pick in the 2001 NBA draft, but soon traded him to the Memphis Grizzlies for Shareef Abdur-Rahim while signing free agent Jacque Vaughn. Abdur-Rahim led the Hawks in scoring averaging 21.2 points per game and was selected for the 2002 NBA All-Star Game. However, Theo Ratliff continued to struggle with injuries only playing in just three games. The Hawks struggled losing 12 of their 15 games in January, but would post a 9–7 record in March. They showed slight improvement avoiding 50 losses by finishing sixth in the Central Division with a 33–49 record. Following the season, Toni Kukoč was traded to the Milwaukee Bucks, and Vaughn signed with the Orlando Magic.
