Atlanta Hawks roundtable: Who is the team’s best player in 2019-20?

In the doldrums of summer, the Peachtree Hoops staff came together for a 10-part roundtable series, answering a series of prompts with an eye toward the upcoming season for the Atlanta Hawks.

Part eight answers a two-man question.

Jeff Siegel: Trae Young is the answer because he plays the most important position/role in the league. Anybody who has the ball in his hands as much as Young will this season is going to be the team’s most important player and, as long as he doesn’t get off to a horrible October and November, he’s going to be the best player as well.
