The Atlanta Hawks have extended head coach Quin Snyder's contract after a successful 2025-26 season. Snyder led the team to a 46-36 record, a six-win improvement from the previous year, and helped the Hawks capture the Southeast Division title and return to the Eastern Conference playoffs for the first time since the 2022-23 season. The Hawks also led the NBA with a franchise-record 30.1 assists per game, the ninth-highest single-season average in league history. Snyder's leadership has been instrumental in the team's success, and his contract extension reflects the Hawks' commitment to stability and sustained growth. Under Snyder's guidance, the Hawks have seen significant individual development, with players like Nickeil Alexander-Walker, Dyson Daniels, and Jalen Johnson enjoying breakout campaigns. Alexander-Walker won the NBA's Most Improved Player Award in 2025-26, making Atlanta the first franchise in league history to produce back-to-back Most Improved Player winners. Snyder was hired by the Hawks in February 2023 after an eight-year run with the Utah Jazz. He has compiled 132 victories in Atlanta and 504 career wins as an NBA head coach.
