The Atlanta Hawks have taken their first-round playoff series against the New York Knicks. There were questions about the Hawks, particularly surrounding their star point guard Trae Young and his ability to take the heat in the playoffs. Well, the problem for the Knicks, Young answered the call in a big way.

Young has been simply amazing. He has averaged 29.2 points, 9.8 assists, 2.8 rebounds, and 0.6 steals in 36.4 minutes per game. He has been reasonably efficient as well, going at 44.
