Reath, 29, averaged 2.9 points and 1.2 rebounds in 7.9 minutes per game for the Blazers before being ruled out for the remainder of the season with a stress fracture in his right foot. The Hawks are expected to waive Reath, which would open a roster spot and allow them to take on additional contracts ahead of the deadline.

The two second-round picks Atlanta received are in 2027 and 2030.
Krejci, 25, is averaging a career-high 9.0 points per game while shooting 42.3% from beyond the arc in 46 games this season. His perimeter shooting should provide a boost for a Trail Blazers team that ranks last in the NBA in 3-point percentage (33.6%) and currently sits ninth in the Western Conference.
Atlanta, meanwhile, is 10th in the Eastern Conference standings.
