Wizards deal Hinrich to the Hawks
The Washington Wizards finally pulled the trigger on an offer for guard Kirk Hinrich, sending him to the Atlanta Hawks.
Washington also traded away Hilton Armstorng, and will receive veteran Mike Bibby, rookie Jordan Crawford, Maurice Evans and a first-round pick in return.
Bibby will give fans another big name to follow, but he is a washed-up veteran who has been in decline for several seasons.
Crawford is the most exciting piece of the trade, as he has the ability to score points in bunches. The draft pick will also help.
The Wizards had hoped to be somewhat of a factor at the NBA trade deadline, and Hinrich was their only bargaining chip.
