NBA Trade Rumors: Hawks Reportedly linked To Paul Millsap,Kyle Korver, and Thabo Sefolosha
The Atlanta Hawks might hope to shake up their program as three players reportedly linked to the team. As per ESPN's Marc Stein, the Hawks "have started listening to trade pitches" for Paul Millsap, Kyle Korver, and Thabo Sefolosha.
Sources told ESPN.com that the Hawks, dreadful of losing Millsap in free office in the summer without pay, are not straightforwardly shopping him but rather taking calls on the 31-year-old. According to CBSsports, the Hawks wants to make changes and seems like the team is starting with Millsap, Korver and Sefolosha.
Korver and Sefolosha are fine players, however, Millsap, a three-time All-Star, is the greatest name specified by Stein. In addition to the report notices, Millsap could turn into a free specialist on the off chance that he outs select of his contact in summer. What's more, in spite of the fact that Millsap said in October that he was quite recently going to concentrate on basketball amid the season, ESPN's Chris Haynes reports that Millsap has chosen to quit and will turn into an unrestricted free agent. In any case, the Atlanta Journal Constitution's Chris Vivlamore reports that Millsap hasn't chosen about quitting yet.
since Millsap could quit, the Hawks are listening to exchange offers now before they potentially lose him to no end in free agency, the similar thing that happened this past summer when Al Horford signed with the Celtics. The Hawks said in October that their objective is to keep Millsap long-term yet as the season has advanced things may have changed. Likewise, this is not the first run through the Hawks have engaged exchanging Millsap as they tested the market last summer as well, NT reported.
The issue for the Hawks is that while Millsap is an amazing player and would be a support to any group, his approaching free agency makes him dubious to exchange. Additionally, teams don't need a rental for a large portion of a season with the danger of him going separate ways toward the end of the season. This could make it troublesome for Atlanta to locate an eager exchange accomplice.
Yet, with Atlanta essentially treading water this season, the Hawks are hoping to roll out a few improvements and it appears as though they are purportedly beginning with Millsap, Korver and Sefolosha.
