Trae Young trade a possibility?
Could the Hawks ultimately decide to keep Dejounte Murray and trade Trae Young in the offseason? I can tell you this much: They’ve certainly convinced various rival teams that a Dejounte In/Trae Out course is going to be legitimately considered.

Reminder: The Hawks can pretty much only tank if they trade Trae Young to the Spurs to get their picks back.
That’s a huge leverage position for a San Antonio team that could definitely use one of the most productive floor generals in the league.

Trae Young got hit in the jaw hard by a stray elbow from Jabari Smith. He stayed down for a minute but got up and made both FTs… Young exited the NBA’s concussion protocol two weeks ago. – 9:45 PM

More on this storyline
The Los Angeles Lakers could wind up on there, too. They have an All-NBA defensive anchor of their own in Anthony Davis and, after declining to make a major move at the deadline, are poised to have three first-round picks at their trade disposal starting on draft night -via marcstein.substack.com / February 12, 2024
Perhaps the more significant reason why Trae Trade Talk has a more tangible feel than ever before: There appears to be a true market forming for Young for really the first time in his six seasons as a Hawk. -via marcstein.substack.com / February 12, 2024
San Antonio tops the perceived list. The Spurs have circulated for months among prominent league observers as a viable destination for Young’s offensive gifts. In Victor Wembanyama, they also seemingly possess precisely the sort of long and rangy defensive anchor who could mitigate Young’s defensive deficiencies. It is likewise believed in some corners of the league that Young would have interest in South Texas as a destination if he were forced to leave Atlanta. -via marcstein.substack.com / February 12, 2024
