Trae Young’s ‘freaky bad accident’ could derail Hawks’ NBA playoff run
NY Post
Trae Young hopes to play through pain.
The Hawks point guard suffered a right ankle sprain in the third quarter of Atlanta’s Game 3 home loss, 113-102, to the Bucks on Sunday in the Eastern Conference finals, which Milwaukee leads 2-1. Young, who finished the night with 35 points, told reporters he’ll continue to receive treatment ahead of Tuesday’s Game 4 in Atlanta. Even if he plays, Young being compromised could be a big blow to the Hawks’ championship hopes.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Relocated across the country, Precious Achiuwa said he’s in a role better suited to his playing style and it’s unfair to judge the aptitude of a Knicks bench last season that was ranked last in both points scored and minutes played.
