Bob Weiss is joining the Hawks as a consultant on Larry Drew's staff.

Weiss will join newly hired Kenny Atkinson on the Hawks' bench.

Former Hawks general manager Rick Sund will take on a new role as senior adviser to the basketball operations.

James Anderson may sign with the Atlanta Hawks.

Danny Green congratulated Anderson on Twitter for the apparent move that hasn't been formally reported yet.

"Got to show love n shout my guy @25 Anderson out for the new deal with Atlanta…Congrats man! Bright future ahead," wrote Green.

Anderson was San Antonio's first round pick in 2010.

Danny Ferry, general manager of the Hawks, is familiar with Anderson from his time in the Spurs' front office.

Paul Lukas of Uni Watch ranks the uniforms of all 30 NBA teams, with the Celtics coming in first.

"The Rolling Stones, "Goodfellas," a Hershey's with almonds -- the classics are classic for a reason," writes Lukas about the Celtics. "That definitely applies to the Celtics' set. No goofy side panels, no extraneous bells or whistles -- just a perfect, vertically arched wordmark and a simple green-and-white color scheme. They rank atop this list despite sometimes wearing that black-trimmed alternate."

The Spurs, Lakers, Warriors and Jazz comprise the remainder of the top-five.

"The Raiders aren't the only team that knows how to wear silver and black," writes Lukas in regards to the Spurs. "In addition to the killer colors, the Spurs are also among the few NBA teams that have successfully incorporated a graphic image into their chest typography -- a small element that goes a long way."

Danny Ferry and the Hawks pursued a trade for Dwight Howard.

“We had discussions with Orlando about Dwight Howard,” Ferry said. “They were apprehensive to trade him within the division.”

Howard is originally from the Atlanta area and Ferry presumably could have offered a package centered around Al Horford.

Kenny Atkinson is close to a deal to join the Atlanta Hawks as an assistant coach.

Atkinson was the Knicks' player development coach and sat behind the bench during games. Atkinson was the only member of the coaching staff who wasn't relieved of his duties when Mike D'Antoni resigned. 

Atkinson was widely credited for his development of Jeremy Lin.

Atkinson is viewed as an eventual head coaching candidate.

John Jenkins is hoping to see a lot of playing time next season.

“This whole thing is a learning experience, and it’s going to be one for a long time,” Jenkins said. “I know a lot of guys have been traded. It’s just an opportunity for me. If I’m going to start, I’m going to have to really work hard for it. I just want to play a lot of minutes.

“As long as I can play a lot of minutes for an NBA team, I think that’s good enough. But I guess everybody wants to say they start for an NBA team.”

Jenkins performed well during summer league games in Las Vegas, averaging 15.6 points on 50.8 percent shooting from the field.

“They (Hawks) think I did really well,” Jenkins said. “I talked to Danny Ferry and he was very pleased. (For my) first games as a professional, I thought to myself I did well. I got guarded very tough … kind of like college almost. I got face-guarded a lot without the ball, and I still worked to get off shots. I’ll try to carry that on into training camp.”

Jeff Teague recently met with new Hawks general manager Danny Ferry and came away excited about the direction of the team.

Ferry has begun to unload and rebuild the roster he inherited by trading Joe Johnson and Marvin Williams.

“He told me he was looking forward to working with me and he really liked my game,” Teague said. “He didn’t know how the trade and stuff would go but he knew I was going to be a focal point.”

Teague will be joined by Anthony Morrow or Devin Harris in Atlanta's backcourt.

“We all can score the basketball,” Teague said. “We don’t really have a big two right now. We have a lot of shooters but Joe was a big two. We are just going to have to do it all collectively with Joe and Al and [now] I feel like I can be an elite point guard.”
