Hawks star Trae Young couldn't pass up a golden opportunity to troll Knicks fans during Thunder-Nuggets Game 7 on Sunday.
The Atlanta Hawks didn't make the playoffs this season after getting knocked out in the play-in tournament, but Trae Young is still going at it with New York Knicks fans. The two sides have a longstanding rivalry going back to the playoff series between the Hawks and the Knicks back in 2021, but they have continued to biker every time the two teams meet.
On Sunday, Young took a shot at Knicks fans despite neither team being on the floor. During Game 7 between the Denver Nuggets and the Oklahoma City Thunder, Young took a shot at the Madison Square Garden crowd while the epic Western Conference series concluded in front of a raucous Oklahoma City crowd.
“Hot take but not.. OKC fans are louder than Knick fans,” Young wrote on X, formerly Twitter. “Happy Sunday!”
Whether Young is right or not, the crowd is certainly helping the Thunder. Oklahoma City is cruising to a Game 7 win over the Nuggets and appears poised to head back to the conference finals for the first time since 2016.
