Anthony Davis scored the go-ahead basket with 3.4 seconds left, then smothered Trae Young on a switch, forcing a tightly contested stepback 3 that failed to draw iron at the buzzer as Dallas closed out Atlanta, 120-118.
Young continues to show up on injury reports with an Achilles issue, but it hasn't impacted his play much at all. The 26-year-old point guard was hardly efficient scoring as he had 25 points on 20 shots, though he set a franchise record with at least 12 assists for the sixth game in a row. He's also scored at least 25 points in seven of his last nine games. Expect Young to continue playing through his Achilles injury as if it's not bothering him.
As expected, Young is available after being considered probable on the initial injury report. He'll be the starting point guard and focal point of the Hawks' offensive attack, which is always the case for Ice Trae.
Young (Achilles) is available for Wednesday's game against the Mavericks.
Young enters Wednesday having notched six straight double-doubles. He hasn't let his nagging Achilles injury hinder him, and he'll likely take on his normal workload against Dallas.
