Name That Hawks Draft... Trade Acquisition!

[lethalweapon3]

Doing a twist on past "Name That Hawks Draft Pick" threads to highlight players acquired, via trade, either on NBA Draft day, in the days leading up to the Draft, or in the post-Draft days leading up to free agency. (e.g., Nique won't count, since his 1982 arrival came over two months after the Draft).

In addition to NBA veterans, the players can include rookies drafted in the year of the trade, but not draft picks selected in future years.

Away we go...

 

Hint #1: In addition to Crossfit, this guy enjoys seeing his name featured prominently on bakery trucks... and not just in Mexico anymore!

Reggie the 1988 savior for us ..:-)

Hint #3: Dem sideburns, tho! Once nabbed 35 rebounds in a game for an "ACC" team. Drafted by an expansion team, this guy scored 44 points over back-to-back days during his All-Rookie season against the Hawks, who were so impressed they traded to get him four months later!

Hint #4: "Vut are you staring at?" Dennis probably had this player's poster as a kid. These days, he'll probably get to set him up for lobs!

Hints #5 and #6: Two tons o' fun! The Hawks somehow got BOTH these guys (not looking like this, though) in the same trade! "Shocking," ain't it?

Definitely Theus.  Hang Time sitcom.

Anthony Anderson used to be a bigger fat-arse than he is now.  He used to be as big as @Spud2Nique

They were the perfect backups/part-time starters on the frontline. Played hard, shot a good percentage from the field, and wasn't afraid to mix it up every now and then.  Cliff and Antoine.

Sad that their tenue as Hawks are only known to Hawks fans.  Cliff is more famous for his 2 year stint with the Bulls championship teams.   And Antoine was a key cog off the bench when Utah was an elite team and going to the Finals.
