In addition to winning at home, Atlanta Hawks fans got to witness the birth of the Luka Doncic and Trae Young rivalry. As you may recall, the Atlanta Hawks were heavily leaning towards drafting Doncic.
However, things turned left when the Hawks drafted Doncic and traded his rights to the Mavericks in exchange for Young who was selected with the fifth pick. For some Hawks fans, this caused frustration.
Fans, critics and trolls struggled to understand why the Hawks would pass on a strong 6-foot-7 guard who can score in a variety of ways and is ready to contribute right away.
