The Hawks have no non-sale except for Capela the Trey Sheep, and the Spurs Mavericks become Corinth's hot next home

Beijing time on January 25, the Atlanta Hawks have taken the lead in completing a trade just weeks before the trade deadline, packing former lotto show Cam Redish and veteran Solomon Hill to the New York Knicks in exchange for Kevin Knox and a future first-round draft pick.

And that's just the beginning. Signs are suggesting that the Hawks are brewing a bigger deal, including John Collins, who just renewed his contract last summer, and that multiple players in the team are likely to change owners by the deadline. According to Jack Fisher, a sports journalist in the open-air stands, only Trae Young and Clint Capela are non-sellers in the Hawks.

"With the exception of Trae Young and Clint Capela, everyone can trade." An assistant general manager in the alliance said in an interview with the open-air stands earlier.

Trae Young is the cornerstone of the Eagles' team, and although the team has not performed well overall this season, he has averaged 28 points, 4 rebounds and 9.3 assists per game, and his performance is impeccable, so the team will certainly not let him go. Capela, who signed an early two-year, $46 million contract with the Hawks last summer, remains a mainstay on the inside, despite his health so far this season.

Except for this two cores, the inside and the outside, everyone else, with the right chips, can be sent away, including the 24-year-old young star John Collins.

Notably, Collins renewed his five-year, $125 million contract with the Hawks last summer, which won't expire until the summer of 2026, but the pair's collaboration this season hasn't had the Hawks' intended effect, so they're considering ending the relationship.

Collins himself has expressed his dissatisfaction with his current tactical role, but he is very professional in saying that he is still loyal to the Hawks: "Ever since I started talking about my contract last season, I've gotten used to the topic of trading. I have vowed allegiance to Atalanta, but I have never pledged allegiance to other teams. ”

Loyalty is one thing, business is another, and in the NBA, rumors are never empty. If the Hawks decide to send Collins away, multiple teams including the San Antonio Spurs, Dallas Mavericks, Philadelphia 76ers and Washington Wizards will reportedly be his potential next home.

Collins is only 24 years old, can be inside and outside, this season averaged 17 points, 7.9 rebounds, 2 assists and 1.1 blocks, shooting 42.6% from three-point range, and the team in the league that is interested in him has a big catch. However, the Hawks' asking price for Collins will definitely not be cheap, and this, combined with his huge contract, could hinder the deal.

To sum up, the deal doesn't look imminent, but it wouldn't be surprising if it happened suddenly.
