The way things have worked recently in the modern NBA is that star players no longer spend the early part of July sitting in conference rooms being wooed by a variety of teams with the hefty cap space needed to sign them in free agency.

Trae Young is like any working person and would certainly like a contract extension. He also seems to know that one isn’t likely coming from the Hawks this summer.
