Hmm. He has zero minutes in the last three games. Good for him, I hope he makes the most of it.

Half time: 0 points, 5 rebounds, 2 assists in 7.5 minutes. His +\- is +4.

Looks like he'll finish with 8 points 3 assists and 7 rebounds.

That's a Daniel Hamilton stat line if I've ever seen one. Dude has such a knack for rebounding.

Also 0 TO's and 50% shooting which is great for a player who struggles with his efficiency.

Might get down to State Farm and see him play or ride the pine. Didn't even know he was on the Hawks roster. Saw the Hawks play Sacramento and don't recall DHam being their for that game earlier in the season.

Really happy for DHam
I loved him at UConn (one of the few here) and thought he had the skill set for the league BUT also thought he should have stayed at least one more year. KO and assistants tried their hardest to keep him at UConn but when DHam decided to go - KO was his biggest cheerleader and made a lot of calls and introductions for DHam - I know this as a fact
His problem was competing with and listening to his brothers

He has spent a bit of time in the G League this year which could explain you missing him. Unlike last year though, he does have a legit NBA contract/roster spot with the Hawks.

He’s barely played in tge G-League also. I think he must have been hurt for a while because he wasn’t listed on the Hawks or their G-League affiliate for a few weeks IIRC.

Dham found offense for Brimah with the lob pass dunk. Getting Brimah into the offense was a big accomplishment. After he left Brimah lost a big part of his game.

Had potential to be the next All-American at UConn if he stayed.
Considering he led the AAC in rebounding as a sophomore at the 3 would support that. Vital boarding at the 2 would have us rethink our glass woes, or it would allow cv to get out and run.

Had 9/8/6 in 23 min tonight. Hawks are starting to give him minutes to see what they have in their young players in a lost season. Nice to see he's cut down on his turnovers, 5 total in his last 4 games. Hes always a threat for a sneaky triple double.

DHam was a basketball player. Instictive feel for spacing and where he needed to be on the court. Terrific passer who made everyone better. This roster desperately needs somebody like that. He has thrived in the D league and I think he can be a solid NBA role player. There isn’t anything he doesn’t do well on the offensive end.
