Hawks Plan To Hire Cavs Director Of Player Personnel Wes Wilcox As Assistant GM, According To Report

Cleveland Cavaliers director of player personnel Wes Wilcox will leave that post to be the assistant general manager for the Atlanta Hawks, according to ESPN.com's Brian Windhorst:

Cleveland's front office has been in the news this offseason. The Cavaliers retained assistant general manager David Griffin after Griffin removed himself from the running for the Los Angeles Clippers' GM vacancy. But the team was nonetheless raided by Atlanta as part of Ferry's ongoing makeover of the Hawks organization.

Windhorst was granted "behind the scenes" access with the Cavs on draft night, producing this feature which mentioned Wilcox multiple times. The article portrays Wilcox as an integral member of the Cavs front office.
