Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young has faced a wave of criticism early in the Summer League, after struggling with his shot, combining for a futile 9-of-37 in his first two games in action.

The father and son tandem of Dell Curry and Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry were part of this year’s American Century Celebrity Golf Tournament that started last Tuesday.
