The Hawks were stuck in the middle of the pack during the 2022–23 NBA season. After going 41–41 and finishing No. 8 in the Eastern Conference, Atlanta is reportedly considering a major shakeup in the offseason.
According to Kevin O’Connor of The Ringer, league sources have indicated that Hawks ownership has given the front office approval to make some major changes, including potentially trading Trae Young.
“With the offseason approaching, league sources say the Hawks’ front office has the green light from ownership to do whatever it wants to with the roster, which includes considering trade opportunities involving All-Star point guard Trae Young,” wrote O’Connor.
