The Atlanta Hawks are considered one of the teams most motivated to make a trade ahead of next month’s deadlines with Trae Young and Jalen Johnson considered their only untouchable players, sources tell Jake Fischer of Yahoo Sports.
Dejounte Murray is one of the more prominent players on the trade market as his fit with Young hasn’t gone as well as the Hawks anticipated.
The Hawks owe their 2025 first round pick to the San Antonio Spurs, which could lead them to punt on this season in hopes of improving ahead of next season when they don’t control their pick.
Because of Atlanta’s struggles, they’re also not considered a serious potential destination for Pascal Siakam, who will be a free agent this summer.
