The Atlanta Hawks were losers of three straight coming into tonight's road game vs the 17-1 Cleveland Cavaliers, who had not lost a game at home yet this season. They were 10 point underdogs in the game tonight, but thanks to one of the best games of Trae Young's career, the Hawks got the win. Young scored 20 points, but had a new career high 22 assists in tonight's game, one short of tying Mookie Blaylock's Hawks record. It was a huge moment that had the NBA world buzzing tonight.
