NBA All-Star weekend has been (quite) busy for Trae Young, with the point guard of the Atlanta Hawks taking part in three different events. Things began in positive fashion with a win in Friday’s Rising Stars Game and, on Saturday, Young was light-hearted after a one-and-done performance in the 3-Point Contest. Everything led up to Sunday evening, though, with the 21-year-old earning his first All-Star appearance and starting for Team Giannis on the biggest stage.
Young was matched up with fellow 2018 draftee Luka Doncic early, as the two took turns guarding each other in the opening minutes.
