The Atlanta Hawks went on the road and took on the Cleveland Cavaliers last night. It was the third and final game of the Eastern Play-In tournament. The 8th seed and the final playoff spot were on the line. The Cavaliers took on an early advantage, and Trae Young seemed out of it in the first half.
However, it looked like Ice Trae flipped a switch at the half. He came out of the locker room and looked like a whole different player. In the 2nd half, he scored 32 points, going 10/14 from the field and 4/7 from the deep. He also dished out 5 assists during this period.
Youngâs 2nd half performance resulted in his getting applause from a lot of people on Twitter. One of them was Grizzliesâ All-Star Ja Morant.
