According to the famous American sports media ESPN, former NBA Rockets player Dangte joined the Hawks with a contract of 2 years and $4.5 million. The former was cut by the Rockets in the offseason. After losing Capela, the Hawks hope to continue to increase their depth in the inside, and the young Dangte has great potential for cultivation and development.

Dante has excellent athletic ability. Although he has few opportunities to perform in the NBA, he has fully demonstrated aggressiveness and dominance in the development league, showing his own characteristics: good finishing ability, fierce rebounding and keen basket protection ability. The Hawks obviously have taken advantage of Dante's advantages. He will become the fourth player behind the three inside players, including Okonggu, Porzingis, and Geyer!

Dangte played for the Development League Vipers of the NBA Rockets in the 2024-2025 season. He averaged 28.6 minutes per game, scored 15.1 points + 9.8 rebounds + 1.0 steals + 2.2 blocks, with a shooting percentage of 74.3% and a free throw percentage of 79.8%. It is remarkable on both offense and defense. What he needs is the opportunity to show on the NBA stage!
