TRAE YOUNG IS HAVING SERIOUS DISCONNECT WITH HIS TEAMMATES.
A report from CBS Sports indicated a strain in the Atlanta Hawks locker room between star Trae Young and “many” of his teammates.
With the Atlanta Hawks being 29-30 and in eighth place in the Eastern Conference, they decided to fire head coach Nate McMillan after three seasons at the position.
They conducted a search and ended up hiring former Utah Jazz bench boss Quin Snyder to keep up the pace to at least make the play-in tournament with one month remaining in the regular season.
As it turns out, he may have to repair the locker room as well.
CBS Sports’ Bill Reiter wrote in a recent article about there being a “serious disconnect” between star Trae Young and “many — though some say nearly all — of his teammates.”
“He is not beloved, sources say, and there’s a strong view that Young fails to lead, to understand or care to understand what is required of him, and that as a result the team will never achieve what it should until that reality is fixed,” writes Reiter.

Reiter also brought up Snyder’s experience working with players with worn relationships, notably between Rudy Gobert and Donovan Mitchell. When describing the Hawks locker room, Reiter says various sources called it “ugly,” “broken,” and “total s—.”
