On Friday night, the Atlanta Hawks took on the Cleveland Cavaliers in the NBA play-in tournament. It was a great game throughout, but in the end, Atlanta pulled through with a big 107-101 victory. Trae Young was on fire, as the young superstar caught plenty of attention from his peers. Even Ja Morant had something to say.
At the conclusion of the matchup, the Memphis Grizzlies star took to Twitter to share his reaction to Trae Young's performance. The Hawks' point guard played well last year, leading Atlanta through a deep playoff run. Apparently, this kid has ice in his veins, as he seems to be at his best in the postseason.

Perhaps we'll see another great playoff run from the Hawks after all? Even though they didn't have a full lineup, Atlanta got the job done and most of the thanks can go to Trae Young. John Collins was out with an injury and Clint Capela fell to a hyperextended knee in the game. The second-leading scorer was Bogdan Boganović with 19. As for Young, he went berserk for 38 points and nine assists.
It was an impressive game, to say the least, which is why Ja Morant had to give credit where credit is due. The NBA is in good hands as the young stars continue to blossom in the postseason. With this victory, the Hawks can now officially participate in the playoffs, which is huge for this organization.
We'll see how it all plays out, as a plethora of teams are capable of winning it all.
