What NBA Teams Would Look Like If Players Played For Their Hometown
- Updated: May 15, 2015

With LeBron James departing for his hometown in Ohio this past summer and the speculation of Kevin Durant returning to Washington, D.C. in 2016, we thought it’d be interesting to take a look at certain NBA teams with the addition of their hometown players.
When determining where a player’s hometown would be, we thought it’d be more suitable if we picked the city where the player grew up, rather than where he was born. So without further ado, we start with Atlanta at No. 10.
10. Atlanta Hawks
Point Guard: Jeremy Lamb
Shooting Guard: Al-Farouq Aminu
Small Forward: Josh Smith
Power Forward: Derrick Favors
