    THE ATHLETIC DATE: 11/16/2020 Schultz: Tony Ressler putting on pressure for Hawks to take a leap By: Jeff Schultz https://theathletic.com/2201724/2020/11/16/atlanta-hawks-tony-ressler-nba-draft-nba-free-agency/ Like most self-made billionaires, and others with the word “tycoon” in their wiki-bio, Hawks owner Tony Ressler is wired differently than most of us. Patience is not his best trait. Limbs flail in all directions during games. When he’s at home, he furiously scribbles reams of notes on yellow legal pads, often underlining sentences several times, to be read back later to his general manager and coach. Jami Gertz, his wife, believes he’s borderline OCD, and even though she’s an actress and doesn’t hold a medical degree, “I once played a doctor on television.” She said it’s bad enough at times that when they’re watching a televised game at their home in Los Angeles, “I’m like, you know what? Give your shit to some other people, I’m done. I’m going to bed.” This is an important week for the Hawks. The draft is Wednesday night and free agency opens two days later. They pick only sixth, and they’re not going to blow things out in free agency, even though they’re more than $43 million below the salary cap. But because of their pick and payroll flexibility, they’re somewhat the flavor of the week when it comes to being potential trade partners for other teams. Atlanta has an enormous opportunity to build on a young core by adding one or two veteran players to the roster and become not just a playoff team but a pretty good one.

To bring 12 Days of Greatness to life, Foot Locker has teamed up with some of the best streetwear designers in and around basketball culture. With much anticipation, Foot Locker kept its 12 Days of Greatness capsule collections under wraps as long as possible, but "The Worst Kept Secret" was blown today when designer Don C gifted four draft hopefuls – Cole Anthony, Anthony Edwards, Onyeka Okongwu and James Wiseman – with early access to Foot Locker exclusive apparel to wear on their big night. Collaborating with some of the biggest names in streetwear, sneaker and basketball culture – including Waraire Boswell, Don C, Melody Ehsani, Montrezl Harrell, Kyle Kuzma, Sami Miro, PJ Tucker and Rhuigi Villaseñor – presents a unique set of challenges, as their products and collaborations are highly coveted.

"This year we've re-imagined our holiday shopping experience to not only release the hottest footwear but offer our community unique apparel and accessories that speak to their interests in all things basketball and sneaker culture," said Richard McLeod, Vice President of Marketing for Foot Locker, North America.
