The Atlanta Hawks' first game since Christmas, which will face the Chicago Bulls on the road today, will be challenged by point guard Trae Young to break the record of at least 30 points and 10 assists in seven consecutive games.
Trae Young has scored at least 30 points and dished out more than 10 assists in each of his last seven games, tying the record set by the legendary Big O Robertson. Trae Young and the Eagles are both looking to win on a record-breaking night in an attempt to make history.
Because Trae Young has a first-class performance, the Hawks only played 3 wins and 4 losses during this period, and recently swallowed 2 consecutive defeats. Trae Young believes that leading his team to win is his top priority.
Speaking about his current performance, Trae Young said: I don't want to discuss my stats. Let's talk about something else. 」
Trae Young may now be more inclined to talk about the return of forward Johnson & Johnson. Johnson & Johnson averaged 14 per game this season before he fractured his wrist against the Washington Wizards on Nov. 251 point, 73 rebounds, both career highs.
Johnson & Johnson has been sidelined with an injury over the past month, and the Hawks have lost 10 of their 14 games during his time on the sidelines. Johnson & Johnson was cleared to resume practice last week and is expected to return for the game against the Bulls.
Trae Young said: Brings a lot to the team. I know if he's ready to come back in the next game or later, he'll definitely help us. Of course he was missed. With the way we've always played, it's clear that we're at a disadvantage in terms of size and rebounding. Everybody has to step up, but he's definitely going to help us a lot. 」
