Atlanta Hawks guard Marco Belinelli is finalizing a buyout agreement that will clear the way for him to become a free agent.

According to ESPN, Belinelli, 31, had been in trade discussions for the rebuilding Hawks, but the team didn’t complete a deal prior to the passing of the league’s trade deadline on Thursday afternoon. His ability to shoot the ball is appealing to contenders anxious to strengthen their bench rotations.

Before Thursday’s deadline, the Philadelphia 76ers, San Antonio Spurs and Oklahoma City Thunder were among teams believed to be interested in trading for him.
