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.

As for the 76ers, the team would be prioritizing adding another wing player into the mix that can knock down shots from beyond the arc. If Ben Simmons is moved for a guard down the road, adding Reddish could make a lot of sense, especially in that circumstance.

What are the ramifications of this hypothetical deal for both teams? Let’s take a look, starting with the Hawks.
