Hawks elect to decline option on John Jenkins

The Hawks declined to exercise the fourth-year team option on former first-round pick John Jenkins. The shooting guard would have been due $2,228,025 for the 2015-16 season but now becomes an unrestricted free agent following the season.

The team exercised the third-year option on Dennis Schroder. The point guard will make $1,763,400 next season.

Unlike most NBA teams, the Hawks do not announce their decision on team options. The deadline for the decisions is today.
