King of New York
We’re going to Vegas, so that’s what I had to… – Trae Young
Trae Young just loves to piss off the New York Knicks. He actually only has a 7-14 record in regular-season games against the Knicks but he still has a reputation for owning New York in NBA news.
Well, on Wednesday, Young was back to being the ultimate foil for the Knicks. The Atlanta Hawks came to Madison Square Garden and won 108-100. Of course, Trae Young’s celebration at the end of the game is going to irk Knicks fans.

With time still on the clock, Young went to the Knicks logo, crouched down, and pretended to roll dice.
Trae Young’s stats were solid against the Knicks but nothing too special. He scored 22 points and had 11 assists. However, as long as he keeps beating the Knicks, he’s going to taunt the New York fans.

Why Was Trae Young Rolling Dice?
The rolling the dice celebration may have been a bit confusing to some so Young decided to explain why he did it.
“We’re going to Vegas, so that’s what I had to,” the Sin City-bound Young said, per Chris Herring of ESPN. “I planned that one with my little brother a few days ago. We had talked about that, and I mean, I knew what I was going to do.”

The Knicks-Hawks game on Wednesday was part of the NBA Cup and with the win, Atlanta is going to Las Vegas to participate. It was a pretty clever way for Young to taunt the New York Knicks fans.
The Atlanta Hawks’ odds to win the Championship aren’t great at +15000 but they could have some fun and win the NBA Cup this year.
