Atlanta Hawks star Trae Younger isn’t letting Patrick Beverley’s newest feedback slide. After the previous NBA guard claimed one in all Younger’s ex-teammates known as him egocentric, the four-time All-Star fired again and demanded receipts.
“That’s why I’m right here having this dialog with you, having to clear up context with you,” Younger stated on his YouTube channel. “As a result of these identical individuals that you just say had been my teammates that had been calling you, telling you that it ain’t the Atlanta Hawks, it’s the ‘Trae Hawks,’ I’m certain they’re the identical people who have my quantity. You possibly can have known as me and requested me to have this dialog off the digicam or off social media, similar to you requested KD to do when he tried to come back at you immediately.
“I wished to take that route that Jaylen Brown took with Stephen A. Smith and inform you to state your supply. State your supply. You’re within the media discipline now. I don’t have a look at you as a participant. State your supply. Which teammate of mine informed you that it’s the ‘Trae Hawks’?”
Beverley’s unique remarks had been sharp, questioning Younger’s management.
“I’ve talked to individuals who performed in Atlanta,” Beverley stated. “They don’t wanna play there. They don’t suppose he’s a great chief. They don’t suppose he’s a great teammate. This isn’t coming from me. It’s coming from Joe Blow over right here. Trae, you possibly can rating all of the factors you need. You may make all the cash you need. You possibly can have all of the main assists you need. You are able to do all that. For those who don’t win, that s—t gained’t matter. For those who don’t win, while you’re retired, they’re gonna neglect your identify quick, too.”
Beverley, by no means one to carry again, responded on his personal platform. “You haven’t achieved something. So in terms of criticism, why the f—ok you possibly can’t be criticized? Like, what have you ever achieved when you possibly can’t be critized? We critized Russell Westbrook, a two-time MVP, motherf—kers calling him Westbrick.
