Since taking over the Hawks in the 2022-23 season, Snyder has been driving the team's rebuilding and development. This season, he led the team to a 46-36 regular season record and successfully made it to the playoffs, but they were eliminated in the first round by losing 2-4 to the New York Knicks.
Mid-season, the Hawks traded four-time All-Star guard Trae Young to the Washington Wizards in exchange for CJ McCollum and Corey Kispert. Despite this significant roster overhaul, Snyder led the team to a strong finish, going 19-5 in the final 24 games of the regular season , demonstrating excellent coaching ability and locker room control .
Furthermore, Snyder has also achieved remarkable success in developing young players. He helped both Nickel Alexander-Walker and Dyson Daniels win the NBA Most Improved Player award for two consecutive years, becoming the first head coach in NBA history to achieve this feat.
