The Atlanta Hawks are reportedly considering breaking up their roster.
Trae Young has been one of the league’s leaders in both points and assists since he entered the game, but that hasn’t translated into success.
They looked like a team on the rise when they made it to the Eastern Conference Finals, but they were unable to keep that momentum going and have been fairly inconsistent ever since.
Also, even though they seemed like a perfect fit on paper, adding Dejounte Murray by his side didn’t do much to improve things.
Now, Young is reportedly on the trade block, but he’s not going to lose any sleep over that.
He took to Twitter to show some pics of him working out, stating that he would only control what he could control.

Recently, Young admitted that as much as he loved the Hawks, he just wanted to win, even if that happened somewhere else.
He then switched agents, parting ways with Rich Paul and Klutch Sports, which was a bit of a surprise.
Clearly, his camp wasn’t all that happy with the way his representation was handling his situation, leading to even more speculation about a potential move in the summer.
Young is a special offensive talent and one of the best playmakers in the game, but his lack of defensive commitment and character issues could drive several teams away.
Even so, given his talent and shot-making, he’s most definitely going to land on his feet, and multiple suitors will line up to get him.
