The Hawks were the only team of the 3 that was named.
The Hawks drew the league’s ire when a person in their ticket-sales department sent emails out that mentioned free-agents Chris Paul and Dwight Howard to potential season ticket buyers. Free agency starts in the NBA on July 1.
Hawks president Bob Williams said last week that the sales letter was an “unfortunate” mistake made by a team ticket representative.
The letter names Paul and Howard as players the Hawks will target this offseason. Written on team letterhead, the letter has the headline: “Hot New Player news: Chris Paul and Dwight Howard,” and says the two stars’ interest in joining the Hawks is “skyrocketing.”
Talk about dumb. Selling season tickets based on star players that you hope you can add? Never mind tampering, that's just bad karma. Watch both of them stay in LA now.
