Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young and Dallas Mavericks point guard Luka Doncic will forever be linked to one another. Traded for one another on draft night, the success of one will always be used as a measuring stick for the other. Doncic made the postseason in just his second season and questions of whether the Hawks made the right call grew louder.
Coming off of the season they just had, however, it’s hard to argue against their choice. And considering Doncic has yet to make it out of the first round, perhaps the question should be turned back of the Mavericks.
