If you haven't heard the news, the first trade of the NBA season has officially happened, and no, the Spurs weren't involved. Instead, the Washington Wizards will be receiving Trae Young in exchange for CJ McCollum and Corey Kispert, according to Shams Charania. In the blink of an eye, the Hawks' once-seen franchise player is now headed to Washington for the price of ultimately nothing.
How does this relate to the Spurs, you ask? Well, San Antonio has a point guard in the same statistical stratosphere as Young, who Silver and Black fans once wanted gone after just a half-season.
