Trae Young’s Trade Value Below Atlanta Hawks Expectations
According to Brian Windhorst and Tim MacMahon, Trae Young’s trade value is currently falling short of the Atlanta Hawks’ expectations. Windhorst highlights that this season is critical for Young, given his upcoming contract extension. The “stress max” contract, which poses challenges for both the player and the team under new financial rules, will be a significant factor. Young needs to deliver a strong performance this year to justify a max deal, whether he remains in Atlanta or is traded.
Tim MacMahon adds that the lack of strong market interest for Young is evident. If there had been a robust market for him, a trade would likely have occurred by now, similar to the trade of Dejounte Murray by the Hawks without a blockbuster return. The Hawks face a complex situation, needing to rebuild while being constrained by their draft capital being held by the Spurs, making a straightforward trade of Young difficult.

Many teams will definitely regret not trading for top-five offensive player in the game, who is only 25. I don’t think there’s ever been a more disrespected and under appreciated superstar who is 25.
MVP season soon 🤫
Steph curry 6’4? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 he’s 6’1.75 barefoot according to pre draft measurements. And he was 21 so I highly doubt he grew any taller. And he clearly looks 6’2
This isn't really surprising. The Hawks need to tear it down, Risacher isn't a good enough prospect to anchor a future lineup, but Johnson is promising. Getting in on a top 10 pick in this upcoming draft would be very wise. They should just get what they can for Trae and also move Hunter, Capela, and Bogdonavich.
Not sure why that matters. Hawks aren’t moving away from Trae. Trae may not be the 1st option for championship team, but he would make it easier for any players he plays with. Hawks always had hard time recruiting or keeping super star player. Hawks would be crazy to trade away Trae, unless he asks to be out.. I look forward to this season. They finally put good defensive players around Trae. I’m sure they will make more moves in the season, but I like where they are going..l
