As @WojVerticalNBA and I discuss on his podcast: Keep an eye on Atlanta before the trade deadline. Hawks been discussing Jeff Teague w/teams

Teague has grown into a valuable point guard for the Hawks. He’s averaging 14.2 points per game this season, and while his assist numbers have dropped, he’s still dishing out nearly 6 per game after three remarkably consistent seasons in which he was averaging around 7 per contest.
Plenty of teams need point guard help. In fact, two teams in particular are rumored to be looking long and hard at upgrading the position.
