He's a SG @Saint23.

Is he really 6-5"?
I would have thought 6-4” tops having stood next to him while he was at the Phoenix

Good signing. He gets some rough treatment on these boards but I like his mix of skills and he can play pretty tough

SEM 1 year, Adelaide 1 year, Illawarra 1 year...Hawks know his skill set but only contracted for a year. It appears odd

In fairness not many offering multi year deals for imports at the moment. Everyone preferring to sign year by year

Very underrated, played PG alongside DJ all of last season very capably. Harvey will do some ball carrying as well.

Certainly an upgrade on Justin Robinson.

I liked Kell last year, decent ball handler, good hit shots from most places on the court, could, he just had a bit of a tendency to take shots outside the flow of the offense at times, which with DJV doing the same did create some frustrating moments.

I'm a bit disappointed by this. Although Kell isn't a proper PG he handled himself decently in the role after McCarron went to the bench.

Likely a better PG can be found on the market but given the Sixers uncanny ability to botch import selections I was kind of hoping we would take the safer option and bring back Kell especially after him being used to playing with DJV and Ice. Now a new import who might not like being behind DJV in the pecking order.

Well done to the Hawks although not a natural PG he's a definite upgrade on Robinson.

I feel the same Zodiac. Lets hope whoever they sign quickly makes us feel good about moving on from Kell!
