Bad look for the league when a 25 yo top player gets traded to the Lakers in a very questionable deal

Hope Trae presents a better solution to the Hawks

Trae Young is atempting a career low 8.9 two point field goal attempts per game. Making a career low 46%.

Avoding contact seems to be the goal due to his injury. Trea with a mid range jumper that's consistent would be something special.

Trae possibly is reaching a new level of success. Let's see if he stays consistent but he's shooting well and playing great.

Last 5 Games he has the following attempts: 26, 22, 22, 16, 26. Shots are falling.

Hawks' Trae Young gives candid response to dealing with hate in NBA

“I never got as much hate as I do now, obviously,” Young told reporters, via Noa Dalzell of SB Nation. “That’s probably one thing I wish I could have back, all the hate that comes with basketball.”

TY is indeed a generational playmaker.

Possibly the best passing guard in the world right now.
