Hawks will choose between Trae or Dejounte this summer?

[Jamaaliver]

There's definitely an argument that Dejounte should be a keeper, either with or without Trae. His production and efficiency has been stellar.

Murray just showing off now...really upping his value. I've been dumbfounded by the bad play for so long with so much talent. Maybe it's starting to come together

I also hope that Trae is learning something about the value of being less helio-centric and getting the team playing together

This is the real hope!!!

Also, I believe Bogdan should be starting.

I am sure Atlanta will look into trading Murray this offseason but if the offers are underwhelming, Atlanta should just keep him

It has to be said: Dejounte looked like a madman after hitting thst Game Winner Thursday night.

In the most hilarious way possible...

Klutch at it again?

Dejounte is really thriving with the ball in his hands. At least individually.

The team offense, however, has slowed dramatically with DJM at the reins...

Trae is the more talented player...but the 'QuinHawks featuring Dejounte Murray' is slowly gaining steam:

Who wore it better?

Can they co-exist?

Do they even want to?

Recent Rumblings are 'Legitimate' That Hawks May Deal Star

Watch on YouTube

The Atlanta Hawks have built around Trae Young for the past six seasons, but that time may soon end.

ESPN's Tim MacMahon called trade rumors surrounding the guard "legitimate" during a discussion with Zach Lowe on The Lowe Post (37-minute mark), adding that "rumblings about the possibility of Trae Young actually being traded, only recently has that been something that you would even think would be a consideration for the Hawks."

The Murray and Young pairing just has not worked...

This season, the Atlanta Hawks have a -5.8 net rating when Trae Young and Dejounte Murray are both on the court (using Cleaning the Glass’ stats). They have a +2.1 net rating when Young is on the court, but Murray is off, and a +1.1 net rating when Murray is on and Young is off (the team has gone 12-10 with Young out due to a finger injury and Murray stepping into a larger role).

Now comes another report echoing what NBC Sports and others have reported, that the Hawks are “likely” to trade one of their stars this summer. This time it is Marc Stein in his substack, echoing something he has been reporting since February.

“Only the Hawks know their preferred path for sure. The most likely scenario, according to one league source, continues to be that Atlanta trades one of its two star guards before next season.”

Some of the questions the Hawks have to answer are: Which player will bring back more in return, and which one can they win building around? Young is an offense unto himself, an All-Star scorer and elite passer, averaging 24.6 points and 10.8 rebounds a game, but he is also a negative defender (who gets targeted in key moments) and is owed $138 million over the next three seasons after this. Murray has averaged 24.6 points, 9 assists and 5.4 rebounds per game while Young has been out and is owed $113.4 million over four years.

The Lakers have been rumored to be interested in Young — in part because Klutch Sports represents him — but multiple suitors would be in line for both.
