Overview

• Young entered camp without a four-year, $229 million extension and said he is not stressing over negotiations.
• He described himself as present and ready for the season after ongoing conversations with coach Quin Snyder.
• Atlanta added Kristaps Porzingis, Nickeil Alexander-Walker and Luke Kennard to a core featuring Jalen Johnson, Dyson Daniels, Zaccharie Risacher and Onyeka Okongwu.
• Young led the NBA with 11.6 assists last season and averaged 24.2 points, while posting a career-low 41.1% field-goal percentage and 4.7 turnovers; he said efficiency is a priority.
• Reporting indicates the front office wants more data on Young's fit, particularly with Jalen Johnson, as it weighs long-term decisions and a forthcoming Dyson Daniels extension.
