Hawks forwards Josh Childress and
Josh Smith have been linked nearly every step of their NBA careers.
They can add Wednesday night's 11:59 p.m. NBA deadline for contract extensions to be signed to the list, as both players will wake up Thursday morning without the security of having new deals.
The Hawks didn't come close to an agreement with either player, making both restricted free agents at the end of this season. The Hawks will retain the all-important right to match any offers made to them by other teams.
