League Search Page > NBA > Atlanta Hawks > Roster & Statistics
The Atlanta Hawks 1977–78 relied on Eddie Johnson as their primary scoring threat, while Dan Roundfield emerged as a major all-around contributor with strong rebounding, interior scoring, and defensive play. Tom Henderson directed the offence as the team’s leading playmaker, and Tree Rollins provided a consistent rim-protecting presence. The statistics reflect a team built around frontcourt strength, balanced offensive production, and a defence anchored by its interior players.
