Fans React as Trae Young's Late Bucket Gives Hawks Dramatic Game 3 Win over Heat

Erin WalshApr 22, 2022

With the game on the line, the Atlanta Hawks can always rely on "Ice Trae."

The Hawks defeated the Miami Heat 111-110 on Friday night at State Farm Arena in Game 3 of their first-round series thanks to Young's floater with 4.4 seconds remaining. 

Young finished the game with 24 points, four rebounds, eight assists and one steal.

Young had a number of clutch buckets down the stretch, including a deep three-pointer with just over two minutes remaining to tie the game at 104.

Atlanta needed Young to step up after scoring just eight points in Game 1 and 25 points in Game 2, both of which were losses for the Hawks. 

However, clutch performances from Young are nothing new. During the regular season, the 23-year-old averaged 28.4 points, 9.7 assists and 3.7 rebounds while shooting 46.0 percent from the floor and 38.2 percent from deep. When his team was down, he almost always elevated his game. 

With the Hawks still trailing 2-1 in the series, the team will need him to step up again in Game 4 on Sunday.
