CHICAGO -- Trae Young’s long All-Star weekend caught up with him in a hurry.
Participating in the NBA 3-point contest Saturday night at United Center, the second of his three consecutive All-Star events, Young struggled from the get-go and was eliminated in the first round.
“The thing about shooting, and shooting that many times, is you’ve got to have legs… It’s been a long day, long weekend so far, and that’s what it was,” Young said. “I just didn’t have any legs.”
Young finished with a score of 15, which was the lowest of the contest, and was the first to be eliminated from contention.
