The Hawks traded for McCollum as part of their deal that sent former star Trae Young to Washington. McCollum made an immediate impact for the Hawks, averaging 18.7 points, 4.1 assists and 3.1 rebounds per game.
Wiggins, a guard drafted out of Maryland in 2021, has played his whole career with Oklahoma City.
He has averaged 8.7 points and 3.2 rebounds per game in five seasons and won the 2025 NBA Finals with the Thunder.
The Hawks have not officially announced either move. General Manager Onsi Salah will hold a pre-NBA Draft media availability on Monday.
