It may be best for them to part ways with Trae. They aren't winning a title with him I doubt but they could get some useful pieces if they decided to trade him. Probably won't get 1 individual player better then him but they could collectively get a decent haul and rebuild around Johnson Daniels and Zach.

Daniels and Zach are not good enough to be "built around". They either sign Trae and go for it or they are in big trouble.

And Trae doesn't seem to be good enough either despite the stats. Why continue to tread water with him when they have looked good this season without him?

They look like a 500 team. Looking at their numbers now they are middle of the pack on both sides of the ball with a 13-9 record once Trae went down. Trades are allowed starting today but I don't think they are moving him.

2 years ago Trae was a monster offensively and was one of the top impact players on O in the league. He's slipped since. If they don't think he can return to form and don't want to extend him - trade everyone not named JJ and Okongwu and see what you can do. I don't think Atlanta can partially rebuild.

He makes sense for Milwaukee in a Giannis trade scenario. Trae would keep them relevant and somewhat competitive/entertaining.

Giannis for Trae, Risacher and Newell works salary wise. Then it's a matter of how many picks to get it done. That 2026 Pels first is the golden goose. That alone trumps anything another team can offer.
