Atlanta Hawks superstar point guard Trae Young embraced his villain side on Wednesday night after his team eliminated the New York Knicks from the 2024 NBA Cup.
Atlanta’s 108-100 quarterfinals win at Madison Square Garden sends the team to Las Vegas to face the Milwaukee Bucks on Saturday afternoon in the NBA Cup semifinals.
As the clock ticked down on the Hawks’ road tournament win, Young decided to get a little Vegas-style trolling in and pretended to roll the dice on the New York midcourt logo.
It’s a harmless bit of mischief on Young’s part, just enough to get Knicks fans temporarily riled up and the rest of us laughing. We love this side of Young’s personality, and the NBA is better when he’s in villain mode.
