Trae Young Could Reportedly Ask Out Of Atlanta

by

Trae Young has consistently been one of the best young point guards in the entire NBA. As a member of the Atlanta Hawks, Young has helped carry the team to an Eastern Conference Finals appearance. Unfortunately, the Hawks lost that series to the eventual champions, the Milwaukee Bucks.

Overall, Young has been a huge success for the Hawks. However, since that playoff run, they have been mediocre. This year was supposed to be special, especially after the addition of Dejounte Murray. Instead, the team is 16-16, which isn’t exactly anything to write home about.

Trae Young Vs. Nate McMillan

Throughout this season, there has seemingly been some beef between Young and Hawks head coach Nate McMillan. On numerous occasions, the two have gotten into some spats. According to some reports, Young and McMillan do not like each other at all. Furthermore, some teammates don’t like Young, although these are mostly just rumors.

Now, a report from Chris Haynes of Bleacher Report spells out potential trouble for the Hawks. Simply put, Young feels like the team is underachieving, and could even ask for a trade. Despite the addition of Murray, the Hawks still aren’t a top-tier team out East, and that is causing some second-guessing from the star.

A Young trade would be disastrous for the franchise as it would put them back at square one. They already went through a rebuild, and the fans don’t really want them to go through yet another.

Trae Young Reveals How NBA Can Hold Refs Accountable

by

NBA officiating has been catching a lot of flack as of late. The calls being made around the NBA have been incredibly inconsistent and it is hard to tell what is truly considered a foul at times. With that being said, the players are looking for some kind of accountability that is very hard to find. The refs are rarely held to the fire, and the players want this to stop.

In fact, Trae Young of the Atlanta Hawks recently took to Twitter where he delivered an interesting suggestion. As he explains, refs should be forced to do post-game interviews, just like the players are. Young thinks this will keep refs accountable for years to come.

“A lot of different, new rules to the game that are kinda “judgemental” calls, why can’t the media interview them postgame too?.?” Young asked. “Maybe discuss some of there biggest calls that may or may have not changed the outcome of that game. Instead of just making a call & moving on, now the call will mean something to THEM as well.”

It is an incredible suggestion, but it is unlikely the league actually goes through with it. Refs have been protected for years, and that is not about to change.

Tell us what you think of Young’s suggestion, in the comments down below.
