The Hawks also received a 2020 and 2021 second round draft pick in the deal.
Dedmon has averaged 5.1 points and 4.9 rebounds for the Kings this season, his seventh in the league. He spent the past two seasons in Atlanta, too, before agreeing to a three-year, $40 million deal with Sacramento this summer.
Dedmon publicly stated that he wanted to be traded in an interview with the Sacramento Bee in December, something the league later fined him $50,000 for. The 30-year-old has averaged less than 16 minutes and played in only 34 games this year. He had averaged 10.8 points and 7.5 rebounds in more than 25 minutes per game with the Hawks during the 2018-19 season.
Parker has averaged 15 points and six rebounds per game this season in Atlanta, his sixth in the league. The 24-year-old is in the first year of a two-year, $13 million deal with the Hawks, though has a player option for next season. Len has averaged 8.7 points and 5.8 rebounds with Atlanta this year, his seventh in the league, though he has been sidelined with a right hip injury. He is in the second year of a two-year, $8.5 million deal.
