All right, Joe, according to Shams, four-time NBA All-Star, Tray Young, and his agent are working with the team on a trade.

Young's rep and the Hawks general manager, Ansi Sala, have reportedly begun positive and collaborative talks over the past week on finding a resolution.

The Hawks and Young agents have maintained dialogue over the future of his future over the past several months.

Since the franchise elected not to offer the contract extension to a 27-year-old guard,

Young have this season and next at $95 million total on the deal with a player option in the offseason.

Young has been the face of the franchise since he was drafted in 2018 and since the team's

all-time leader in three points, three-pointers and assists.

He has led Atlanta to the postseason three times in his eight years, including a run in

the Eastern Conference finalsals in 2021.

But the Hawks appear poised to turn the page to a new era with the emergence of Jalen Johnson,

who's averaging 24 points a game, 10.2 rebounds and 8.5 assists, and free agent acquisition

to kill Alexander Walker, who's averaging a career high 20 points.

Joe, what is the best trade scenario for the Hawks and Trey at this point?

I've been, okay, Ocho, I've been hearing a lot.

Honestly, I don't know what's the best trade scenario, but due to, you know, Nikkeyea Alexander, you know, he stepped up, he's been playing, I mean, he's having a career season.

You get guys like Vic come off the bench, the Daniels kid who's been playing.

Dyson Daniels.

But I think we run into kind of a similar

situation that Dallas ran into. They didn't want to pay Lucan no 300 million. And I think this is

kind of, kind of similar. I don't think that the Hawks don't want, Trey. I just don't think they

at that at that max dollar number.

You know what I mean?
