Despite ongoing trade rumors, Trae Young remains with the Atlanta Hawks primarily due to a lack of market interest, according to NBA insiders. Teams like the LA Lakers and San Antonio Spurs showed interest but ultimately did not pursue a trade. The Hawks' decision to trade Dejounte Murray for a modest return highlights the difficulty of moving Young, whose substantial contract and performance metrics complicate potential deals. Young, a multiple-time All-Star, continues to be a pivotal player for the Hawks, averaging 25.5 points and 9.5 assists per game. As the team prepares for the 2024-2025 season with new talents like Zaccharie Risacher, Young's future with the franchise remains uncertain, with the possibility of free agency in 2026 if he opts out of his contract. The Hawks are now focusing on developing their younger core while navigating the complexities of their star player's trade value.
