At last, we have arrived at the 2021 NBA trade deadline, a week that will undoubtedly be full of intrigue and excitement for just about every fanbase in basketball.

While in the midst of a galvanizing eight-game winning streak led by interim head coach Nate McMillan, the Atlanta Hawks are becoming increasingly reluctant to move their starting power forward [John Collins] by the March 25 trade deadline, league sources told Yahoo Sports.

With the trade deadline three days away, HoopsHype’s salary cap expert, Yossi Gozlan, came up with several trades he’d like to share.

The Warriors have shown interest in Hawks guard Bogdan Bogdanovic, sources said.

The Hawks have expressed interest in Celtics guard Marcus Smart, sources said. Smart has played in six games since returning from a calf strain, and Celtics players understood his loss in the lineup during the month-and-a-half he sat out.

Boston’s pursuit of Collins also involves another key Hawks rotation player, according to league sources: Bogdan Bogdanovic, whom the Celtics had some trade discussions about while he was in Sacramento. If the Hawks were to acquire Ball, maybe moving Bogdanovic would make some sense. Both Collins, 23, and Bogdanovic, 28, fit the timeline of All-Stars Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown, who are 23 and 24, yet are good enough to compete now.

We have officially arrived at the week of the 2020-21 NBA trade deadline, one of the most exciting times of every year for the typical NBA fan, filled with constant Twitter scrolling and article-clicking for the latest rumors and news.

There’s skepticism around the league that the Pelicans will move Lonzo Ball ahead of the deadline, but that won’t stop teams from trying. League sources say the Bulls and Hawks are both in pursuit. Chicago has offered Tomas Satoransky and second-round picks, but New Orleans is asking for at least one good first-round pick or a young player. Talks with Atlanta have revolved around Cam Reddish.
