With a commanding 23-point, 8-assist performance, Trae Young propelled the Hawks to a huge comeback win in a game they had trailed the Indiana Pacers by 27 points Wednesday.
It is OK to get excited.
To be sure, one can dismiss the performance with the usual line chorus of "It's only Summer League." On the other hand, Young is still just 19 years old playing in Las Vegas surrounded by players who are typically a few years older than he is. He is only going to get wiser and stronger, and if Wednesday's game is any indication of how he can take control of a game, whoo boy, Hawks fans are in for a treat.
