Atlanta Hawks Receive: G Tyrese Maxey, G Isaiah Joe
Philadelphia 76ers Receive: F Cam Reddish, ATL 2023 Second-Round Pick
Cam Reddish, the No. 10 overall pick in the 2019 NBA Draft, heads to the City of Brotherly Love along with a 2023 second-round pick. Tyrese Maxey, the No. 21 pick in the 2020 NBA Draft, heads south along with Isaiah Joe.
This would be a relatively straightforward trade scenario where the 76ers and Hawks would be largely swapping a young player on their team with another.
The Hawks have become saturated with wing talent and it will soon be time to pay Reddish, so could it make sense to move him for a player at a different position? That would be the motivation in this particular instance.
There were struggles for the Hawks when Trae Young was on the sidelines throughout games since the bench unit lacked a ball handler that can dictate the game. The bet in this instance that Maxey could develop to be that type of player going forward.
