On April 3, Beijing time, the 2021-22 NBA regular season continued. In today's East Focus game, the Hawks beat the Nets 122-115 at home. With this victory, the Eagles' record became 42-37 and the ranking rose to 8th, and the Nets dropped to 10th in 40-38!
In today's game, the Nets Durant frantically scored 55 points and Irving scored 31 points. But the Hawks still got the win because Trae Young played too well. With an injury, Trae Young played 35 minutes and shot 10-of-24, including 4-of-9 from three-point range and 12-of-14 from the free throw line, and slashed 36 points, 6 rebounds and 10 assists!
In the crucial final quarter, Trae Young returned to the field in the final five minutes, scoring 11 points on 3-of-5 shooting, including a three-pointer that determined the direction of the game. At that time, Trae Young singled Mills, and he used the fake action to deceive the opponent and hit a three-point shot! Then Trae Young made a full-body shaking motion and compared to the celebration of the classic Ice Trae (Cold-Blooded Killer)!
After the game, Trae Young said, "I saw Mills writhing a little, so I shook a little too, and then I shot and hit. It was tough, we fought until the last minute, it felt good to win like that, we knew we couldn't limit Durant more, but our defense was doing well. ”
Durant praised Trae Young after the game: "He's really smart at playing. ”
It is worth mentioning that today's game is the 19th time this season that Trae Young has scored at least 30 points and at least 10 assists, ranking first in the league, and ranking him behind Doncic (9 times) and Harden (7 times)!
According to the schedule, the Hawks will challenge the Raptors on the road on April 6, and they will strive to win to consolidate the ranking.
