00:00The Hawks do not have their own first-round pick next year and in fact
00:09they don't control their picks for the next three seasons. It's unprotected
00:16belongs to San Antonio, an unprotected swap with San Antonio and then it's a
00:21straight-up unprotected belongs to the Spurs. So the Hawks selling DeJanta Murray
00:29trading DeJanta Murray. It's not step one of a full teardown. I saw the phrase
00:37for the first time flag hunting yesterday Cooper flag the projected
00:42first overall pick for next year's 2025 NBA draft. Atlanta is not going flag
00:51hunting. Now it doesn't mean the Hawks are going to look to build the most
00:56competitive roster in the league but it means that Atlanta will not reap
01:01benefits from being a 20-win basketball team. And it is why the trade with the
01:09Pelicans was a little jarring due to the Brandon Ingram trade rumors that have
01:16not stopped and we'll discuss more about. Atlanta getting B.I. back you would have
01:21thought would have been something that they would have been interested in
01:24because they're not in a position to bottom out.
01:30So now that DeJanta Murray is gone paired with the reports we've heard even if I
01:36find them to be preposterous that Trae Young would net you less it is on the
01:44board that Trae Young will just remain a Hawk.
