Hairbrained (in honor of Trae) idea: Young to Portland for Jrue/Rob Williams. Portland has the perimeter defenders and rim protectors on the roster to cover for Trae. Atlanta saves $14m in salary next year with Williams coming off the books and turns the keys of the offense over to Jalen Johnson. Pair it with an AD trade and they have a pretty solid, if injury prone, lineup.
I'd also be okay with a Naji-Newell inclusion in an AD deal. Marshall makes a lot of sense for the Hawks if they're willing to spend. I hope the Mavs are pushing for some 2nds from Atlanta as well so Martin or Dlo can be offloaded to a team like Brooklyn.
