2 years agoThe Atlanta Hawks have requested waivers for point guard Sharife Cooper. The move comes just a matter of days after Cooper signed his two-way qualifying offer with the team. The 21-year-old appeared in just 13 games for the Hawks last year. The Hawks bulked up their backcourt this offseason by acquiring Dejounte Murray from the San Antonio Spurs and signing free agent point guard Aaron Holiday. Cooper was a standout during his lone season at Auburn, averaging 20.2 points and 8.1 assists per game before being selected in the second round of the 2021 NBA draft. We'll see if any teams put in a claim for him.--Andrew Ericksen - RotoBaller
