When the news initially broke that the Atlanta Hawks were trading their veteran point guard, Trae Young, to the Washington Wizards, the narrative that began soon after was that the Hawks didn't get enough value in return for shipping off the four-time All-Star.
However, with recent reports out of Washington indicating Young isn't expected to suit up for the Wizards for the foreseeable future, people are taking a closer look at what the Hawks received in return.
When looking at what this Hawks roster was lacking as they approach the February 5th trade deadline, their return may actually be more valuable than the Wizards, at least for this season.
