Hawks trade Dedmon to Pistons for Snell

Two teams with playoff aspirations in the Eastern Conference have made a trade to address some key needs.

The Atlanta Hawks have sent center Dewayne Dedmon to the Detroit Pistons for guards Tony Snell and Khyri Thomas, the latter of whom was waived by Atlanta.
