As mentioned by Cunningham, the Hawks are also in the process of hiring Kenny Atkinson, who has most recently served as the Knicks' development coach. Hill was a holdover from Mike Woodson's staff, while Gattison has been an assistant for two years under head coach Larry Drew.
No official announcement has been made by the team regarding any of the moves.
