Coby White is likely to be on the move before the trade deadline. This trade gives Chicago the type of assets they would want in a deal when trading White. Luke Kennard's contract can expire after the season and the Bulls could resign him, but they do this trade for the assets in return.
For the Hawks, Coby White brings good scoring and doesn't need the ball to be in his hands. Coby can also playmake when needed. He has fit with Josh Giddey so he can fit with Trae Young. He gives a boost to Atlanta's offense and will be a part of the Hawks' long-term future.
