- Young’s 38 points lift Atlanta past Cavs for No 8 playoff seed
- Hawks will face top-seeded Heat in first round of NBA playoffs
Trae Young scored 32 of his 38 points in the second half and the Atlanta Hawks overcame losing center Clint Capela to a knee injury to beat the Cleveland Cavaliers 107-101 in the play-in on Friday night and earn the Eastern Conference’s No 8 playoff seed.
Young started slowly for the second straight game, but “Ice Trae”. as he fancies himself, heated up when it mattered most.
