Fantasy Impact:
In a blockbuster deal, Atlanta will be moving on from Young, who has been the face of their franchise for a number of years. As anticipated by recent rumors, he is being sent to the struggling Wizards, who are sending CJ McCollum and Corey Kispert to Atlanta in return. He will continue to be an above-average fantasy option on his new team, but it remains to be seen whether or not he has the top-tier fantasy upside that some other guards possess. This move solidifies Jalen Johnson and Dyson Daniels as two of the most important players for the Hawks moving forward, which is great news for their long-term fantasy value.
