Atlanta Hawks Upcoming Events & Tickets
Event Details
The Atlanta Hawks are a professional basketball team based in Atlanta, Georgia, competing in the NBA’s Eastern Conference Southeast Division. Established in 1946 as the Buffalo Bisons before multiple relocations and rebrandings, the franchise eventually settled in Atlanta in 1968. Over the decades, the Hawks have built a reputation for fast-paced play, high-scoring guards, and loyal fan support, especially through periods of dynamic roster changes and playoff runs.
The team’s modern era has been defined by its electrifying point guard Trae Young, whose deep shooting range and flashy playmaking made him a face of the franchise soon after being drafted in 2018. Alongside developing talent like Jalen Johnson, De’Andre Hunter, and Onyeka Okongwu, the Hawks have remained a consistent presence in postseason conversations. Historically, the team’s most iconic figures include Dominique Wilkins, known as “The Human Highlight Film,” whose high-flying dunks made the Hawks a must-watch team in the 1980s.
With a mix of rising stars, established scorers, and a commitment to up-tempo offense, the Hawks continue to evolve as a team with playoff ambitions and a passionate fan base at State Farm Arena in downtown Atlanta. As they refine their core and develop under new leadership, the Hawks aim to return to serious title contention in the coming seasons.
