Trae Young Reportedly Resigned to Not Signing Extension With Hawks This Summer

Trae Young is reportedly resigned to the idea of not signing a contract extension with the Atlanta Hawks this summer. Both the Hawks and Young's camp are said to be waiting until next summer to address his future, with his current contract having a guaranteed season followed by a $48.9 million player option for 2026-27. Atlanta aims to evaluate its re-tooled roster's performance before making long-term financial commitments, while Young's value could increase if he leads the team to a strong playoff run.
