TRAE YOUNG TRADED | Hawks Guard To Wizards For CJ McCollum

Trae Young’s blockbuster trade to the Washington Wizards sends shockwaves through the NBA, but what does it really mean for fantasy basketball managers? Has Atlanta Hawks’ future taken a turn for the better, or did they just offload elite talent for minimal return?

Josh Lloyd breaks down the immediate impact for the Hawks, who land CJ McCollum and Corey Kispert—raising questions about Atlanta’s roster direction and player usage. Key topics include Jalen Johnson’s rise as the clear number one option, marginal bumps for Nickeil Alexander-Walker and Dyson Daniels, and why no player on either side becomes a fantasy must-add. On the Wizards’ side, potential minutes open up for Justin Champagnie, while Kyshawn George and Tre Johnson see their values dip. Is this the most underwhelming fantasy fallout for such a major NBA deal? Get the latest analysis on how this trade alters (or doesn’t) your fantasy basketball strategy.
