My guess is that he's the guy they're offering up to Phoenix for Crowder.
IMO, Hawks need Bogi's 3pt shooting and ball handling in the 2nd unit than they need Crowder.
I get that. He's just so unavailable though.
But he might be "so unavailable" because of ATL management too, it was known he had a problem in his knee, but instead of taking time, he was always rushed, like Hunter, to come back as soon as possible, which was in fact too much soon, and they injured again.
Bogi and Hunter gave their body for the 2020-21 season, they could easily stop their season sooner but ATL would not have reached the ECF.
Now that he got the right surgery, and a lot of time to come back, it's certainly not the time to think about trading him because he could easily come back better than he was previously
Don't forget that Bogi had one of the best Bet rating of this team, don't forget that, they were at their best with him on the floor.
You don't trade this kind of player without a good reason, and Crowder is certainly not one good enough at this moment
