Trae Young delivered a stunning 49-foot, half-court buzzer-beater—the longest shot of his career—to secure the Atlanta Hawks' 124-121 victory over the Utah Jazz on Tuesday night. After Collin Sexton tied the game for the Jazz, Young responded with the game-winning shot and waved "bye bye" to the Utah crowd. He finished with 24 points and a career-high 20 assists, recording his first 20-point, 20-assist performance. The shot is the seventh-longest game-winning buzzer-beater in NBA history and marks Young's third career game-winning buzzer-beater, the most in Atlanta Hawks history. Post-game, Young commented, "I'm just glad I had an opportunity to win it for us."
