Atlanta Hawks star point guard Trae Young was fined $25,000 by the NBA for confronting an official and using inappropriate language at the conclusion of the team’s 114–113 loss on Wednesday night against the Nets.
At the end of regulation, Young took a runner at the top of the key as time expired and missed. The Hawks lost the game by a point, and Young was incensed. He believed he was fouled by Nets star Mikal Bridges on a reach in as he went up for the jump shot.
