Hawks’ dream trade target identified after season opener

The Atlanta Hawks had a rough start to their 2025-26 season, losing by twenty to the Toronto Raptors in a frustrating game. While it is not time to hit the panic button, it was an eye-opening experience that indicated this roster might not be complete yet.

Bleacher Report had an interesting trade idea for the Hawks: acquiring Ayo Dosunmu from the Chicago Bulls. Entering his fifth season, Dosunmu is the perfect Trae Young backup the Hawks have been looking for.

Dosunmu is a 6’5 combo guard who was drafted from Illinois for his two-way potential at the guard position.
