## Resource

The Atlanta Hawks are racing against the clock to bring back CJ McCollum, the veteran guard who lit up the playoffs with clutch shots and helped them push the Knicks to the brink. Despite a young roster and a deep draft class, Atlanta’s focus remains on keeping McCollum — a 34-year-old still delivering elite performances and invaluable leadership. With free agency looming and other teams eyeing his experience, the Hawks know they must act fast to retain their key player, balancing veteran stability against the promise of youth as they build for the future.
