NBA Draft: Trae Young looking to leave a mark, answer questions after being picked No. 5 overall

Trae Young walked to the stage at the Barclays Center, wearing a deep maroon suit with shorts.

He slid on the Dallas Mavericks hat — though he already knew he'd been traded to the Atlanta Hawks — then he quickly opened his jacket, briefly flashing the lining of his jacket.

“They will know your name,” the panel on the right side of the interior of the jacket said.

Plenty more people know his name now, after he was picked No. 5 overall in the Thursday's NBA Draft.

Young's destination became widely known a few minutes before the pick, when the Hawks selected Luka Doncic with the third pick and ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reported that the picks would be swapped.
