Trae Young pushed and shushed his way to NBA stardom. He’s not done yet.

Travis Schlenk, Atlanta’s president and general manager, left the Golden State Warriors to run the Hawks in 2017, drafting Young a year later to reboot a franchise that had reached its ceiling with Al Horford and Paul Millsap. But Young entered the league under the most unfair expectations: His love for deep three-pointers and Schlenk’s previous gig drew obvious comparisons to Curry, a two-time MVP. And because the Hawks dealt Luka Doncic for Young on draft day, Young spent his first two seasons hearing more about who he wasn’t than who he was becoming.
