For years, Atlanta Hawks superstar Trae Young has had to deal with criticism and doubts.
From his days in high school to when he dominated the Oklahoma Sooners, opposing bullies often called him an exaggerator.
That’s why there’s not much opposing fans can do to get him out of the zone nowadays, because he’s been used to those cheers his entire career.

Some doubt Young could find success in college, and he had one of the most exciting NCAA basketball seasons since Stephen Curry at Davidson.
Then, he entered the league with great doubts and questions due to his lack of defensive experience or willpower, and he responded by being a leading scorer and passer since his professional debut.
He led the Young Hawks to the Eastern Conference Finals the first time he made the playoffs, took Madison Square Garden by storm and sent New York Knicks fans home despite all the jeers, boos, jeers, insults and whatnot.
He did the same thing again Tuesday night when he dropped a 30-foot TD Garden to force a Game 6 and keep the Falcons alive for at least two more days.
Young is by no means a flawless player, and there have been some questions about his leadership over the past two seasons.
But he will never shy away from the moment or be afraid to take any shot or play anything, no matter who he faces or where he plays.
