I don't think moving to Atlanta would be good for Zion's health. Dude needs to go to Utah or something where he has nothing to do but play ball.

The real question is... would either side want to do it for the 2027 lesser of NOP/MIL 1st? Hawks look content to pivot to the young core and move off Trae next offseason. But if they want to give it one last push for weak-East playoffs...
For the Pels, could they deal with the embarrassment of trading with Hawks again and risk getting burned?

I question whether Zion actually makes the Hawks better. Atlanta has a lack of size and rebounding, which Zion doesn't solve. Atlanta can't afford to be paying $40M+ to a guy who might play half the games.
