Kirk Hinrich was sent to what team in a February 2016 deal?

Kirk Hinrich was sent to the Atlanta Hawks in a February 2016 deal. The Chicago Bulls traded the veteran guard to Atlanta on February 18, 2016, as part of a three-team transaction involving the Utah Jazz.

The trade sent Atlanta guard Shelvin Mack to Utah, while Chicago received Justin Holiday and a future second-round draft pick. Hinrich returned to the Hawks, having previously played for the franchise before rejoining the Bulls. His experience and defensive reputation made him a useful late-season addition for Atlanta.

The deal can be confusing because Hinrich had played for several NBA teams, including Chicago, Atlanta and Washington. He was originally a Bull, selected seventh overall in the 2003 NBA Draft, but the February 2016 transaction specifically moved him from Chicago to Atlanta. The Hawks reached the playoffs that season, and Hinrich appeared in Atlanta’s postseason rotation.
