Trae Young is a player who gets polarizing reactions from NBA fans. Although he is a very good point guard, some feel like he is always seeking fouls. Moreover, his shooting can sometimes be inconsistent. However, without him, the Atlanta Hawks are nothing. They would never have made the playoffs this season without him on the roster. He did his absolute best against the Boston Celtics, although it didn’t work out as they were promptly eliminated. Having said that, Young continues to have a bright future ahead.
Interestingly, Trae Young was part of numerous trade rumors throughout the season. There was this belief that he wasn’t happy to be in Atlanta anymore. However, he ended up staying with the team, much to the delight of fans. Now, the season is coming to an end which means free agency is almost here. Subsequently, we are getting a bunch of new rumors, involving the Los Angeles Lakers. This has made things even more interesting ahead of the July movement window.

Jovan Buha of The Athletic is the one reporting on these rumors. As he explained, the Lakers are thinking of making a trade that would make Trae Young their point guard. “For what it’s worth, Kyrie Irving and Trae Young, two All-Star-level point guards, were both sitting courtside in Los Angeles for the second time this postseason,” Buha wrote. “Young, like James and Davis, is a Klutch client. The Lakers have had internal discussions about what a hypothetical trade offer for Young could look like this summer, according to multiple league sources not authorized to speak publicly.”
Of course, the Lakers are always involved in these types of rumors. That is how every single offseason plays out. Although, this will definitely persuade Lakers fans to be excited about next season. Let us know what you think of a potential Trae Young trade, in the comments section below.
Trae Young is currently one of the best point guards in the entire NBA. Overall, he is someone who has dominated the floor and continuously carries his team. Although he is not beloved by the rest of the NBA fandom, Hawks supporters certainly do love him. He is the backbone of that franchise, and he will hopefully remain there for years to come. Moreover, Young has become someone who has been able to secure a lot of endorsements for himself. For instance, he currently works with the likes of Adidas.
Just a couple of years ago, he was given the Adidas Trae Young 1. Subsequently, Young got hit with a lot of praise from fans. This is a signature shoe that impressed a whole lot of people. With Nike getting all of the attention in the basketball world, Adidas was able to steal quite a bit of thunder. Last year, fans got the Adidas Trae Young 2, and soon, the third iteration will be hitting the market. In fact, @allinlivee on Instagram has offered up a leak of the new TY 3 model.
As you can see in this Instagram post, it is rumored that the shoe will be out sometime in September. Moreover, the silhouette is quite interesting, albeit in line with what Adidas has been doing. As for the very first colorway, fans can expect something that is pink, orange, and black. When you put all of these elements together, you get a sneaker that is going to turn heads, but also be a bit polarizing.
Of course, these are leaked images which means you should not expect any release dates or prices just yet. However, these should be dropping at some point later this year, which means more details are on the way. Hopefully, Trae Young or Adidas keep us enlightened, very soon. Let us know what you think of this sneaker, in the comments section below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the sneaker world. We will be sure to bring you the biggest releases from the biggest brands.

For the 2019-20 season, basketball player Trae Young signed a multi-year contract with the German company Adidas. This news came to light by the end of 2020, thanks to Young uploading it on his Twitter account. Trae is one of several athletes making a mark in the world of branded shoes. Even after recently having an altercation with Celtics’ Marcus Smart, Young seems to have more of an eye on this market than ever. Moreover, he’s moving into the 2023 season by showing off the new Trae Young 2.0 kicks.
With just two signature shoes, Trae Young always had his logo. The letter T seemingly merges with the Y. However, for future Adidas products, this will change and get a rebrand. The new logo becomes a more minimal concept with sharp, pointy lettering, almost like a videogame target. For now, his current Adidas collaboration showcases the old logo.
This basketball shoe was released in 2019 as Trae’s first signature sneaker with the company. The Trae Young 1s feature a sleek and modern design with a combination of synthetic materials and mesh for breathability. Trae Young 1’s features Adidas trademark BOOST cushioning and a light strike midsole. This is commonly known for the best performance in basketball and for providing comfort and support for the feet during intense games.
The sneaker also has a rubber outsole with a herringbone pattern that delivers excellent traction on the court. The sneaker hosts 12 colorways and sells between $35 to $151. Moreover, the most popular colorways are red, blue, white, and black. This low-cut shoe also features an outsole fit for heavy-duty workouts, showing the signature Adidas three stripes on the side.
Meanwhile, Trae Young 2.0 have a similar design to the first one. However, hosts a knit upper instead of the classic mesh used previously. This gives it a sock-like construction that provides a snug fit and added support for the foot. Which is used for a better grip around the foot and to enhance agility when in movement. There are ten colorways available, retailing at $140.
Additionally, instead of having the three stripes on the side, it is wrapped around the front of the shoe this time. Further, Trae is using this signature shoe in his most recent games. Stay tuned for more updates and the latest news from the sneaker works.
A collaboration between Adidas and Trae, this sneaker is a high-top version of the classic Top Ten basketball shoe. It is updated with modern design elements and performance technologies. The upper of the Trae Young x Top Ten High is made from a combination of leather suede materials. Furthermore, it features a padded collar and tongue for added comfort and support.
One key feature is their responsive cushioning technology, complete with a full-length Boost midsole. They provide excellent energy return and shock absorption. The shoe’s outsole is made from a durable rubber material and has a traction pattern designed for optimal grip on the court. In addition, the Trae Young x Top Ten High is available in various colorways. This includes a black and white version with gold accents that pays homage to Trae’s high school alma mater, the Norman North Timberwolves. It’s a stylish and functional choice for basketball players who want to perform at their best while looking good on the court.

It is made from white leather and light blue suede, with gold accents on the Adidas stripes and tongue.

The NBA has in the most important leg of their season. The opening round of the playoffs has already started with a bang. Including all the drama that took place on Monday night with Draymond Green and Damontas Sabonis. However, it appears as if the league can never run out of fresh drama. This time, the drama will not have a direct person to blame. Because the source doesn’t have a name. However, that doesn’t mean the latest news won’t cause a stir.
The Athletic recently took an anonymous player poll around the league. The range of topics was from best fan base to worst fan base, to even who is the most overrated player in the league. Calling someone overrated is a statement that carries a lot of weight. However, calling someone overrated without repercussions may be a little easier. On the topic of the most overrated player in the game, one name earned the most votes. That name belongs to Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young.
Trae Young Voted Most Overrated Player

Young took home the crown of most overrated, an award I’d assume makes him proud. However, there were other big names that received votes in the category. The first stunner would be Damian Lillard. Lillard grabbed nearly 4% of the vote in a category he doesn’t belong in. Dame has long been highly regarded as one of the best to play the game. But for some, those praises may not state the case of who he is as a player. The list is bound to ruffle a few feathers. Including Green, who may not be the best at holding back his feelings.
It is strange that everyone aside from Lillard on this list at least qualified for the play-in tournament this season. Maybe the anonymous voters all played on teams that are currently sitting at home. Whatever the case may be, Young has bigger fish to fry. The Hawks have the huge challenge of trying to take down the Boston Celtics in the first round of the playoffs. So, maybe this is the bulletin board material Young needs. Do you believe that Young is the most overrated player in the NBA? If not Young, who earns your vote? Bravely let us know in the comment section. For the latest sports news, keep it locked in here with HNHH.
Trae Young and the Atlanta Hawks are gearing up for the play-in tournament. The Hawks will meet the Miami Heat for a chance at the Eastern Conference seventh seed. However, that hasn’t stopped the NBA rumor mill from mentioning Young. Young has been the topic of recent potential trade discussions. While it would take a lot for the Hawks to deal with their young superstar. But nothing is impossible when regarding an NBA trade. For Young, he has everyone still guessing.
“It could be false, could be true, you never know,” Young answered when speaking with The Athletic. The Hawks star has been an offensive sensation since joining the league. In his time in college, Young was can’t miss television for Oklahoma. The Sooners star was defying the odds of just how far someone can consistently shoot the ball. Obviously, the comparisons with Steph Curry were inevitable. Young has proved there is no range for a dead-eye shooter like him.
Young’s 2022-23 campaign has been exactly what you would expect from him. The two-time all-star averaged 26 points and 10 assists this season. However, the Hawks didn’t make that leap in the Eastern Conference Standings. A potential early exit in the play-in tournament could really heat up the trade rumors. Young was traded on his draft night by the Dallas Mavericks for Luka Doncic. The trade is now known as one of the biggest NBA Draft trades in history. A trade that everyone is uncertain on who actually won.
Trae Young is no stranger to having an unknown future. But the Hawks star isn’t letting his guard down when discussing where he could be next season. The Hawks will have important decisions to make regarding their roster. Obviously, Young would like to see the team climb the Eastern Conference standings. However, that may be difficult to do with the Sixers, Celtics, and Bucks standing in the way. Do you believe Trae Young will be on another team next season? Let us know in the comment section. For the latest NBA trade news, keep it right here with HNHH.
Trae Young is easily one of the best point guards in the entire NBA. However, he has certainly had his fair share of issues throughout the season. Ultimately, these issues have seemingly been due to head coach Nate McMillan. Overall, there have been numerous times in which these two have clashed with one another. Moreover, it has led to reports that the Hawks would fire McMillan. In fact, there was a sense that McMillan could even step down on his own. Needless to say, not a good look for Young.
This season has not been great for the Hawks. They are a team that is most likely going to participate in the play-in round. Overall, this is not great when you consider how the Hawks made it to the Eastern Conference Finals just a few years ago. It was believed that the Hawks could help run the East for years. Furthermore, the addition of Dejounte Murray had many believing in this team’s backcourt. However, after a stretch of mediocre performances, the Hawks decided to officially fire Nate McMillan on Tuesday night.
This is one of those decisions that everyone saw coming. Now, there are plenty of names being considered for the Hawks job. Although fans really want Ime Udoka to step in, it seems clear that he will not be considered. Instead, the Hawks are tasked with finding someone who can work well alongside Trae Young. Unfortunately for Young, he is being seen as the scapegoat for McMillan’s firing. After seeing multiple coaches get fired during Young’s short tenure with the team, he is being labeled as a “Coach Killer.”
In the tweets down below, you can see plenty of memes and comments suggesting he is directly responsible for his team’s recent decision. In fact, former NBA coach George Karl even weighed in, saying “It’s a Trae Young vs a Nikola Jokic League. Me first vs We first.” This is a bad reputation to have, and Young will have to work very hard to get rid of it. Let us know what you think of this situation, in the comments section down below.
Trae Young and Kyrie Irving are two point guards who know how to light up the scoresheet. Young is one of the most impressive young stars in the league. Meanwhile, Irving is an established talent who some believe is the most skilled guard of all time.
As you can imagine, Young has a ton of respect for Irving. He got to watch the Nets superstar as a teenager. Ultimately, this influenced Young to become the player he is today. Overall, Irving has influenced a ton of young stars, although Young definitely sticks out.

Last night, the Nets took on the Hawks. Unfortunately, Trae Young did not get to play as he was dealing with an injury. However, Dejounte Murray stepped up and scored 24 points. In the end, it was the Nets who came out victorious in a tight 108-107 match.
Trae Young Praises Kyrie
Following the game, Young and Kyrie shared a hug and some words. Eventually, the clip of them made its way to Twitter. Trae Young immediately commented on it, revealing just how much he respects Kyrie as a person.
“Some don’t even understand the type of dude he is.. Real ones do!” Young wrote. Needless to say, these two have the utmost mutual respect for one another.
Young is someone who will be a star in this league for a very long time. As for Kyrie, he has the potential to win a second NBA title this year as the Nets are on a roll. Hopefully, for Nets fans, he is able to do just that.
Let us know what you thought about last night’s Hawks and Nets game, in the comments below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news from the sports world.
During his time with the Atlanta Hawks, Trae Young has seen some very famous people sitting courtside. Overall, Atlanta is a huge hub for hip-hop. As a result, you should be able to deduce that tons of rappers are typically sitting courtside at the games.
One of those artists is none other than Boosie Badazz. Over the years, he has been a staple of Hawks games, and the fans love to see him there. However, it appears as though Boosie’s fandom could be under attack as he recently took to social media with a distressing message.

Below, you can see Boosie explain a recent interaction he had with NBA security. Simply put, they told him that if he continued to talk trash at the players and coaches, he would be removed from the arena for good. Needless to say, the NBA came with a real threat.
Boosie says the NBA security told him that they’re going to put him out if he talks to any of the Hawks players or coaches pic.twitter.com/o7uqJyDLLw
Young doesn’t appreciate this treatment of Boosie as he took to Twitter with a measured response. Basically, Trae Young believes Boosie isn’t saying anything that egregious. In fact, Young believes people have gotten away with way worse.
“Nahhh man we not gonna do this to Boosie now.. Bro be chillin most games with family,” Young said. “Heard 11x worse things being said to players & coaches then how he be talkin. Lol Thanks for the support! @BOOSIEOFFICIAL“
Nahhh man we not gonna do this to Boosie now.. Bro be chillin most games with family Heard 11x worse things being said to players & coaches then how he be talkin. Lol Thanks for the support! @BOOSIEOFFICIALhttps://t.co/rn0NUuySMs
Young is the defacto captain of the Atlanta Hawks, which makes him the perfect person to speak out on this topic. He has experience with the fans, and if he says Boosie isn’t doing anything crazy, then the league should take his word for it.
