The Washington Wizards are being considered as a potential trade destination for Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young, with discussions reportedly centered around C.J. McCollum’s expiring contract, as noted by NBA reporter Marc Stein. Atlanta has begun talks with Young’s agents, amid speculation of a split after the Hawks declined to offer him a max extension. Young has struggled with a knee injury this season, significantly affecting his performance and contributing to the Hawks’ playoff misses in recent years. With the Feb. 5 trade deadline approaching, a deal may be imminent as both parties seek change.
