The Atlanta Hawks 1976–77 were led by John Drew, whose scoring made him the focal point of the offence, while Tom Henderson directed play as the team’s primary facilitator. Dan Roundfield and Tree Rollins gave the frontcourt a strong interior foundation through rebounding and defensive presence, with Rollins providing valuable rim protection. The statistics reflect a balanced team that relied on inside play, solid rebounding, and shared contributions around its leading scorer.
