Young has some fans worried.

Trae Young is currently one of the best point guards in the entire NBA. Overall, he tends to be underrated by the league's establishment. At just a young age, he has already helped lead his team to the Eastern Conference Finals. Moreover, the Atlanta Hawks are consistently in the playoffs, even when they shouldn't be. This past season, the team struggled at points, however, Young played some phenomenal basketball. As you can imagine, he is very popular in the city right now.

Unfortunately, there are a lot of people out there looking to bring Trae Young down. This has led to some very peculiar trade rumors over the past few weeks. For instance, it has been said that Young could be on his way to the Los Angeles Lakers. Although, none of this has been confirmed. In fact, during episodes of his new podcast, Young has tried to assure fans that he is staying put. However, his latest move definitely won't ease any anxiety.

Trae Young Has Fans Worried

In the tweet above, it was made evident that Trae Young has deleted any trace of the Atlanta Hawks from his Instagram account. Overall, this seems like a weird thing to do in the midst of so many rumors. Although it could be innocent, some believe it is a deliberate showcase of where his head is at. That said, Young, himself has not made any comments suggesting he would like to be traded. One has to assume that Young and Dejounte Murray will be the team's backcourt headed into next year.

NBA rumors always heat up around this time of year. It is easy to see why this is the case as free agency will start soon after the end of the NBA Finals. For the most part, a lot of these rumors never come to fruition, however, some of them actually do. No matter what, it is going to be very interesting to see how all of this ends up playing out. Let us know what you think will happen with Trae Young, in the comments section below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news and updates from around the sports world.
