Bembry played all 82 games for Atlanta this past season, starting in just 15 of them. With only one season left before he becomes a restricted free agent in 2020, DeAndre finished with 8.4 points per game on less than 29% shooting from downtown. The Hawks will most likely be observing his upcoming season closely to make a decision on what has to be done with his contract.

In this day-and-age of perimeter shooting oriented NBA basketball, Bembry's outside shooting woes have really been a cause of concern for the Hawks for quite some time now. Playing over 23 minutes per game during the 2018-19 regular season, he finished with a 10.7 Player Efficiency Rating.

To put things into perspective, he doesn't space the floor well and is not the go-to guy on offense, making him more of a liability on the roster.
