Hawks Extend Coach Quin Snyder After Trading Trae Young and First-Round Playoff Exit
The Atlanta Hawks agreed to a multiyear contract extension with head coach Quin Snyder. The move follows a similar extension for president of basketball operations Onsi Saleh.
foxnews.comThe Atlanta Hawks and head coach Quin Snyder have agreed to a multiyear contract extension, ESPN reported. The agreement marks consecutive extensions by Hawks ownership to Snyder and Onsi Saleh. Saleh was promoted to president of basketball operations from general manager on May 27 and signed to a long-term extension.
Snyder has been with the Hawks since the 2022-23 season. He guided the Hawks to a 46-36 record before losing in the first round to the New York Knicks in six games. The Hawks traded four-time All-Star Trae Young to Washington in early January in a deal for CJ McCollum and Corey Kispert.
Snyder helped guide the Hawks to a furious finish, winning 19 of their last 24 games of the regular season. Atlanta has been the only team to beat the Knicks so far this postseason entering Monday's Game 3 of the NBA Finals. Snyder also is the first head coach to develop players who won back-to-back Most Improved Player of the Year awards in Nickeil Alexander-Walker and Dyson Daniels.
