Trae Young was having a night and already had 30, so with :06 left and the Hawks down one, of course they put the ball in his hands and told Young, “Go win it.”
Young missed, but Saddiq Bey crashed the glass and got the putback dunk game-winner.

Bey had arguably his best game of the season, finishing with 26 points and 13 rebounds.
Bey’s dunk and Young’s 30 — on 9-of-24 shooting — helped the Hawks overcome a game where they shot 6-of-27 (22.2%) from 3 on the night.
