In the 2024 NBA lottery draw, the Hawks were lucky to win the lottery with an ultra-low probability of 3%, and as the Hawks won the lottery lottery, the discussion about the future of the Hawks became a hot topic, and Woj revealed that the Hawks had a great opportunity to rebuild, and they may have to trade Trae Young and Murray.
Woj spoke on the podcast about the Hawks' potential offseason moves after winning the No. 1 pick.
"The Hawks have a great opportunity to reshape their roster by including Murray in trade talks, and I feel like there's a good chance that Trae Young will join the roster if they choose to rejuvenate the roster or simply rebuild," he said. ”
After Woj exposed such news, many popular teams such as the Lakers, Warriors, and Rockets fell into related trade rumors, among which the Warriors media "bluemanhoop" posted a 4-for-1 trade plan.
Through this 4-for-1 trade plan, the Warriors successfully intercepted the Lakers' sweetheart, and Murray teamed up with Curry to compete for the championship.
The potential trading scenarios are as follows
Warriors get: Murray;
The Hawks get: Kuminga + Moody + Payton Jr. + 2025 first-round pick.
For the Eagles: a journey to rebuild
The Hawks finished the season with a 36-46 record, 10th in the East, and lost to the Bulls in the playoffs.
This record and results are almost a microcosm of the Hawks' overall performance over the past few seasons, and after the team repeatedly hollowed out the future to meet Trae Young's request for reinforcements, Trae Young did not move up the star rating and lead the team to the next level like Doncic.
With the Eagles winning the No. 1 pick, it's time for the Eagles to embark on a rebuilding journey.
In fact, as early as the middle of this season, the Hawks put Murray on the shelf, during which the Lakers had several rounds of trade discussions with the Hawks, and finally because the asking price was too high and Russell's state picked up, the trade negotiations between the two sides broke up.
Compared to the Lakers' offer, the Warriors' 4-for-1 offer is full of sincerity, and Kuminga has averaged 18.7 points per game on 54.2% shooting since he got a stable role on January 5.
Since Kuminga's role has been limited in Kerr's system, it is entirely possible that Kuminga will transform into a quasi-All-Star caliber after joining the Hawks for a bigger role.
In addition, the Hawks acquired Moody, a young player in a trade, who was also heavily suppressed under Kerr, and has every hope of developing into a qualified rotation-level 3-and-D player.
Coupled with the Warriors' 25-year first-round pick, a 25-year first-round pick is actually worth a lot of money, considering the age composition of the Warriors and their performance this season.
If the Eagles are determined to rebuild, then this deal is well worth the team's consideration.
For the Warriors: A good alternative
If the Warriors can't get a higher-level star in the offseason, then this trade is worth the Warriors' consideration.
The main reason why he is an alternative is that Murray is not a player who can immediately turn around the Warriors' disadvantage, and his star rating is clearly not enough.
Coupled with Kuminga's age and proud talent, if it were not for particularly high-quality reinforcements, the Warriors would most likely be reluctant to send Kuminga away, and the American media "bluemanhoop" only gave a C- rating.
However, considering the Warriors' current tricky situation, as well as Paul's contract and status, the Warriors need to find a second point of possession for Curry, and Murray almost fits the bill perfectly.
He just had one of the best seasons of his career, averaging 22.5 points, 5.3 rebounds and 6.4 assists per game, shooting a career-high 7.1 three-pointers per game and shooting 36.3 percent from the field.
Considering his role next to Trae Young, Murray could play the outside rim next to Curry, and he could also be the centerpiece of the second team in the rotation phase, earning Curry a break of about 15 minutes.
On top of that, the deal left the Warriors with Wiggins, given Klay's slump on the defensive end.
With the addition of Murray, the Warriors, who have three high-quality defenders of Murray + Wiggins + Dream Chasing, can hide the Splash Brothers on the defensive end.
But given Kuminga's talent and value, the initiative of this trade plan is still in the hands of the Warriors, and how to measure Kuminga's trade value will determine the direction of the trade.
