The Indiana Pacers and Atlanta Hawks made progress on a trade of De’Andre Hunter before talks fell apart this week, sources tell Jake Fischer of Yahoo Sports.
The Pacers have been seeking a trade for a big wing to add to their backcourt core of Tyrese Haliburton and Bennedict Mathurin.
The Hawks have looked for ways to jump up from No. 15 into the top-10 of the draft, but the Pacers were not willing to trade No. 7 in those talks for Hunter.
Hunter signed a four-year, $95 million contract extension with the Hawks last offseason that begins in 23-24.
The Pacers have also contacted the Golden State Warriors on Jonathan Kuminga, while they have also been linked with Harrison Barnes, Kyle Kuzma and Grant Williams in free agency.
