The Knicks are waiving Solomon Hill, according to Fred Katz of The Athletic.
The Knicks acquired Hill from Atlanta in the trade that also brought then Cam Reddish. Hill is out for the season with a torn right hamstring so the Knicks are cutting their losses and signing Ryan Arcidiacono to a 10-day contract instead.
Solomon Hill (torn hamstring) has been traded to the Knicks.
Hill is out for the remainder of the season and was just salary filler in this trade.
The Atlanta Hawks announced on Wednesday that an MRI confirmed that Solomon Hill tore his right hamstring and that he is likely out for the remainder of the season.
This is the news we expected after Tuesday's news, so it is not too surprising. Atlanta will continue to lean on Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot in the starting lineup, and they will hope to get Cam Reddish (wrist, illness) back for Friday's game against Brooklyn.
Hawks GM Travis Schlenk said Tuesday morning that Solomon Hill tore his hamstring off of the bone, and said that he will be "out quite a while," According to Mike Conti of the Atlanta Hawks Radio Network.
Schlenk added that Hill is "looking at a long process" so don't expect him to be back anytime soon. The Hawks have been slammed by injuries, so this is terrible news for them as Bogdan Bogdanovic and Cam Reddish both remain out as well as Deandre Hunter and Onyeka Okongwu. Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot will continue to start and see extended minutes until Cam Reddish and Bogdan Bogdanovic are back in the lineup.
