Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young is known for being a prolific scorer less than two seasons into his NBA career.
With all of the down time due to the COVID-19 outbreak, Young is interacting with fans more on Twitter.

Thompson routinely guards the other team’s best players, and Young experienced just how good Klay is on the defensive end when he was held to just four points on 2-for-12 shooting in their first meeting of the 2018-19 season.
