Atlanta Hawks Extend Head Coach Quin Snyder’s Contract

Atlanta Hawks head coach Quin Snyder has secured a multi-year contract extension with the franchise, the organization revealed Monday.

Team officials did not disclose financial details or the length of the new agreement.

Atlanta completed the regular season with a 46-36 record, capturing the Southeast Division title for the first time since the 2020-21 campaign. The Hawks’ playoff run ended with a six-game series loss to the New York Knicks in the opening round.

The team demonstrated remarkable resilience after sending four-time All-Star guard Trae Young to the Washington Wizards in a January trade, posting a 19-5 record over their final 24 regular season contests.

“Quin has been a phenomenal leader for our team, and extending his contract reflects our commitment to stability and sustained growth as we build toward high-level success,” said Onsi Saleh, Atlanta’s president of basketball operations. “Over the past three seasons and amid an evolving roster, we’ve seen clear, measurable progress, which is a testament to the culture he’s established and the leadership he brings every day. He has created an environment where our players are challenged, supported, and empowered to grow, and that focus on player development has elevated our entire program.”

The 59-year-old Snyder holds a 132-135 record during his three seasons leading the Hawks. His overall NBA coaching record stands at 504-399, including eight seasons with the Utah Jazz from 2014-22. He took over as Atlanta’s head coach in 2023.

Snyder achieved a unique distinction as the first NBA head coach to develop consecutive Most Improved Player award winners, coaching Nickel Alexander-Walker (2025-26) and Dyson Daniels (2024-25) to the honor.
