2019–20 Atlanta Hawks season


The 2019–20 Atlanta Hawks season was the team's 70th season of the franchise in the National Basketball Association and the 52nd in Atlanta.
This was the first time since the 2013–14 season that did not include Kent Bazemore on the roster, as he was traded to the Portland Trail Blazers for Evan Turner. This also marks the 22nd season Vince Carter plays in the NBA, being the first player to play in the league for that long.
The season was suspended by the league officials following the games of March 11 after it was reported that Rudy Gobert tested positive for COVID-19. On June 4, 2020, it was announced by the NBA Board of Governors approved a plan that would restart the season with 22 teams returning to play on July 31, 2020, which was approved by the National Basketball Players Association the next day. The Hawks, with the league's fourth-worst record at the time of the season's suspension, were not among them, effectively ending the team's season.
