1. One of the best things in sports is when an opposing player becomes Public Enemy No. 1 in a certain city and then plays a game in that city.
That happened Tuesday night when Hawks guard Trae Young visited the Knicks and Madison Square Garden. Young became a New York villain last season when he led Atlanta to a playoff victory over the Knicks.
On Tuesday, Young answered the call in a variety of ways. He dominated on the court during his team’s 117-111 win, he was excellent in taunting the MSG crowd and he was great in his postgame interview.
