## Resource

Jalen Johnson is skyrocketing to stardom, now ranked the second-best power forward in the NBA — a breakout season averaging 22 points, 10 rebounds, and 7.5 assists has cemented his role as Atlanta’s franchise cornerstone. With Trae Young gone, the Hawks are all-in on Johnson, whose elite athleticism and well-rounded game have stunned the league. While his 35% three-point shooting offers room for growth, pushing it to 38% could elevate his scoring to 25-28 points per game — making him an unstoppable force. The Hawks aren’t chasing other superstars; they’ve got one already, and Johnson’s development shows no signs of slowing. The Eastern Conference better brace itself — this is just the beginning.
