Summary
The Atlanta Hawks, under new GM Onsi Saleh, made a bold move trading Trae Young for CJ McCollum and Corey Kispert, sparking debate but gaining player approval. Despite a strong finish to the season, they fell short in the playoffs. The trade, initially criticized, was seen as a strategic move by league players, signaling faith in Jalen Johnsons potential. The Hawks, with a solid foundation and cap space, are poised for a title run in year two of the Johnson era. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
