The 2024 NBA Draft is less than a month away and that will be the next big event in this NBA Offseason Calendar. Two teams to watch this offseason are the Atlan
ta Hawks and the Orlando Magic but for different reasons. Atlanta is trying to reshape its roster, which means that they are likely totheir backcourt of Trae Young and Dejounte Murray, they hold the No. 1 pick in the NBA Draft, and there are other players on the roster that could be traded. Orlando on the other hand is looking to add to its roster, which surprised a lot of people by getting the NO. 5 seed and pushing the Cavaliers to seven games in the first round.
"The Orlando Magic already have one of the league's brightest futures. Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner are both future stars, and the Magic had the league's No. 2 defense behind themHowever, there are real offensive concerns with this group. And though it's cool to boast two forwards who can create for themselves and others, having a real, high-end point guard to take some of that responsibility from them could push Orlando to the next level.
Despite the steady criticism over Trae Young's ball-dominance and lack of defense, he's still one of the league's most consistent and dynamic offensive engines. And the easy looks he'd create would do wonders for Banchero and Wagner. Balancing the shot attempts might take some time. In that trio, Young could be the third option on some nights, which would take some getting used to. But the upside there, especially in concert with the defense of Jalen Suggs, Jonathan Isaac and Wendell Carter Jr.
I still think that Atlanta is going to opt to keep Young, but that is just speculation. This team is likely going to look much different when the season tips off though and this is a pivotal offseason for the future of the Atlanta Hawks
