Worst nightmare: Hawks’ bad guy makes Suns’ Kevin Durant cry at NBA All-Star Game with a total dirty skills….
After sucking the soul out of Phoenix Suns star Kevin Durant late in the second quarter, Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young stunned the NBA All-Star Game fans in Indiana on Sunday.
In a back-and-forth, high-scoring first half, Young found himself one-on-one with Durant. After a cross-over, Young passed the ball to himself between Durant’s legs, resulting in an easy floater for two points.
Young only had one basket (1-of-3) in the first half, but he made it matter with his skill. Being a multiple-time All-Star, Young is no stranger to taking part in the yearly showcase. His rude gesture against KD, though, is by much the high point of his All-Star performances so far.
Despite missing out on the All-Star Game in 2022–23, the 25-year-old received his third career selection this season, having averaged 27 points and 11 rebounds in 50 Hawks games.
