Despite the loss, Trae Young finished with 27 points, three rebounds, six assists, three steals and one block while shooting 8/22 from the field and 6/12 from the three-point range in 35 minutes. The former Oklahoma star also made NBA history.

Jalen Brunson scored 34 points to lead the New York Knicks to a 119-110 win over the Atlanta Hawks. It was the 68th 30-plus point game in Brunson’s career as a Knick, and it helped New York improve to 28-16.

But Jalen Brunson had another target in mind. While he would never acknowledge it and certainly would never admit it, but in the flow of trying to lift the Knicks to a much-needed win, he also was attacking Atlanta’s defensive stopper, Dyson Daniels. Daniels had begun to garner a reputation for frustrating Brunson.
