The Atlanta Hawks are weighing the fact that guard Vit Krejci will be a restricted free agent in the offseason, which gives them the right to match any offer sheet. The hope is that they will be able to keep Krejci on a four-year deal that begins next season. After being waived by the Minnesota Timberwolves last October, Krejci signed a two-way contract with the Hawks in late December and made an impact for Atlanta with Trae Young sidelined for the majority of the campaign's later stages. The 23-year-old point forward averaged only 7.7 points, 3.0 rebounds, 2.3 assists over his last 15 games (nine starts), but he hit 1.6 three-pointers per game on 43.6% shooting from deep over this period and proved he could be a versatile rotational piece.

Atlanta Hawks guard Vit Krejci has been waived by the organization on Wednesday. He was on the team with a non-guaranteed deal and it appears the Hawks wanted to cut down their roster one spot. The 23-year-old made 23 appearances for the Hawks last season, but only averaged 5.7 minutes per game. He'll attempt to catch on elsewhere after getting cut by Atlanta. It's worth noting that Krejci suffered an ankle injury during the Summer League. It's unknown if that issue is going to impact him with basketball activities going forward.

Oklahoma City Thunder shooting guard Vit Krejci (knee) underwent arthroscopic left knee surgery Tuesday in an attempt to alleviate a nagging ailment that kept him from playing at 100% in 2021-22. Krejci appeared in 30 games (eight starts) for OKC and averaged 6.2 points and 3.4 boards, shooting 40.7% overall. A second-round selection in the 2020 NBA Draft, Krejci's deal for next year is only partially guaranteed, which doesn't cement him a spot on a rebuilding Thunder roster. The rookie delivered 10 PPG across six April contests and is on track to begin next season healthy.
