The Hawks ended up with an all-important W over Bradley Beal and the rest of the DC-based squad as Atlanta snaps the Wizards' three-game winning streak with a 118-111 win. Young led spearheaded the attack for Atlanta and added 26 points and six dimes to his impressive free-throw tally.

Young has made a name for himself in his young career as one of the more creative players out there who can draw a foul almost anywhere and everywhere. But, with a massive rule change this season, it's been quite challenging for the 23-year old to get to the line. After averaging 9.3 and 8.7 free throw attempts per game in his last two seasons with the Hawks, Young's free throw attempts have gone down to a career-low of just 4.3 attempts per game.
