Trae Young was heckled by Boston Celtics fans as the Atlanta Hawks lost Game 2 just hours after being labelled the ‘most overrated’ NBA player by his peers.
On Tuesday, Young scored 24 points as his Hawks fell to the Celtics in a 119-106 defeat at TD Garden on Tuesday. The 24-year-old lined up for a free throw midway through the fourth quarter when the excited home crowd leathered him with an ‘overrated’ chant.
Naturally, Young hit the free throws - but the chant will hurt. According to The Athletic, the Hawks point guard was recently labelled the ‘most overrated’ player in the league by fellow NBA rivals in an anonymous poll.
