Hawks lock in CJ McCollum on extension

A three-team trade involving the Wizards, Pelicans and Rockets has been completed, according to Basketball-Reference's transaction log.

Sean Deveney of Heavy Sports reports the Clippers could eventually shop Darius Garland as they try to rebuild their pick stockpile after losing their own firsts through 2033. One mock framework sends Garland to Atlanta for CJ McCollum, Corey Kispert, Ryan Nembhard and two first-round picks.

Per an official transaction record logged by Basketball-Reference, Atlanta has traded Trae Young to Washington. Coming back the other way are Corey Kispert and CJ McCollum, plus a trade exception for the Hawks. No further details were included in the transaction entry.
