Hawks looking to TRADE Trae Young after two disastrous season for team

Trae Young

The Atlanta Hawks have put a lot of faith into Trae Young. They are ready to move on after two disappointing seasons from the young guard. With the NBA regular season coming to an end, reports say that the Hawks’ front office is free to do whatever it wants with the roster as the offseason approaches; this includes looking into trade possibilities involving All-Star point guard Trae Young.

Trae Young led the Hawks to a conference final appearance in 2021, prompting his rise to fame and trust with the organization. However, after getting embarrassed 4-1 in the first round by the Miami Heat, who they face in this year’s play-in. Trae Young had one of his worst performances in the 2022 first round, shooting 31% from the field and 18% from three.

Trae Young has led the league in total assists over the last two regular seasons, but his scoring efficiency has dropped, and the recent playoff meltdown did not help. The all-star point guard shot 42% from the field and just 33% from three this season. Young has regressed offensively and lost his chemistry with John Collins since 2021.

The Atlanta Hawks have been on rocky terms with Young since the turn of the calendar year. As per Shams Charania and Sam Amick, tensions between Young and previous head coach Nate McMillan were worsening, forcing team meetings and raising concerns about Young’s leadership. According to reports, players chose the coach over their top player.

According to TNT’s Chris Haynes, the situation became so bad that Young may ask for a trade this summer if the Hawks don’t make “inroads” in the playoffs. Regardless of Trae’s intention to remain, the Hawks may opt to alter their plans after an anticipated early elimination from the play-in or the playoffs. Trae Young and the Atlanta Hawks have hit an impasse commonly seen between young stars in unsuccessful organizations.

Trae Young and the Atlanta Hawks want out of each other’s business in a messy situation inside the organization. Despite changing their head coach, the Hawks remained a play-in team like last season and, this time, looks likely to get eliminated before the playoffs. Trae Young will be in the eyes of every NBA GM out there, as he does have the potential to be a superstar.
