Atlanta Hawks second-year point guard Trae Young has passed Portland Trail Blazers superstar Damian Lillard as the quickest player in NBA history to hit 350 career 3-pointers.
Young hit his 350th career shot from beyond the arc on Monday against the Charlotte Hornets. He did it in his 140th game:

The Hawks have been awful this season, but Young has firmly established himself as one of the best point guards in the NBA. Trae made his first All-Star team this season.
Young came into Monday averaging 29.4 points, 4.3 rebounds and 9.2 assists. He's become like Lillard and Golden State Warriors MVP Stephen Curry in the sense that opponents have to start guarding the Hawks' floor general as soon as he crosses half-court since his range is limitless.
