Trae Young on Hawks' struggles: 'We're in a difficult situation right now'
Lauren L. Williams: “What do you take away from tonight’s game and how do you guys bounce back from a second straight big loss?” Young: “We’ve got to find a way. I’ve been down before and found a way to fight back, and that’s just what it is. We’re in a difficult situation right now, we’ve just got to figure it out. We’ll get through it, I ain’t got no worry about it.”

The Hawks are getting absolutely ROLLED by the Wizards at home.
Blow it up. Trade everyone. Including Trae. – 9:34 PM

A bit of a rotation change here in 2H.
Trae usually exits early in 1Q/3Q to return later in the quarter. When he comes back, Dejounte usually sits.
Here, they’re playing together late in 3Q. – 9:11 PM

that foul on Trae should be a transition take foul, but refs seem to have forgotten they’re allowed to call it except the most egregious situations. – 8:56 PM

Wow. Trae Young did a great job getting in position to take a charge … and then did two little backpedal steps that put him back behind the charge circle. So he got trucked by Kuzma and still got a foul for his efforts. – 8:36 PM

Trae set a screen for Saddiq Bey and then he limped out on the play after contact.

Trae has weirdly been more physical on defense than offense. Doesn’t seem like he can accelerate the way that he wants to.
He grabbed his left leg on the +1 basket he had in 2Q when he stayed down for a bit. – 9:27 PM

Someone asked Trae this morning about getting a couple of in-game dunks like Bogdan Bogdanovic has recently.
Trae half-deadpanned, “I wish I was blessed with Bogi’s … height.” – 6:46 PM

Sixers wanted a foul on Trae Young on final play of regulation last night and Nick Nurse argued vociferously after the play. L2M report says that it was correct no call, but two other missed calls at end of regulation favored Atlanta. pic.twitter.com/zdG0XUVl0C – 6:24 PM

It’s virtually impossible to shed the traffic cone label once you get it, but Trae Young has been better defensively this year.
