Trae Young no longer cares about comparisons to Luka Doncic

You probably distribute more assists… When Draymond Green remarked to him, referring to his comparison with Luka Doncic, Trae Young hastens to confirm: Yes it’s sure ! »

It must be believed that the leader of the Hawks knows the respective lines of stats well: he himself distributes 9 caviars on average since the start of his career, where his Mavs counterpart gives one less each evening.

The destinies of the two men have been linked since June 21, 2018, when they were exchanged for each other on the evening of their Draft…

The comparisons between the two men since? “ I don’t even care anymore. I know the real ones understand. I think for me, once I win a title, it will open my eyes to what I’ve really done. Especially for some of my peers that I’m compared to », displays Trae Young in front of the Warriors player.

Statistical lines quite close

This one seems to have taken a step back on the question when we reread his past speech. ” It bothers me that people always talk to me about him. But I know it is so. I didn’t ask, but it just happened. We are in two different situations, we are two different players. He plays well, me too. Let’s leave it like that. We will be compared throughout our careers, until our retirements “, he dropped in 2019.

As it stands, Luka Doncic is a rookie of the year trophy, four All-Star selections and as many appearances in the league’s best five, where Trae Young has two all-star games on the clock and one All-NBA selection. Statistically, the two men are closer earlier, even if the Texan scores more and takes a lot more rebounds. As for the playoffs, it’s a conference final each and almost the same total number of games played in this context.

Disturbs “yesterday, the 24-year-old says today that he has” no hatred towards anyone, especially not towards Luka. We talk to each other constantly. We have a lot of love and respect for each other. There are different agendas and the way people look at certain people is different. To be honest, I’m not interested in it. I think over time people will figure it out and realize there’s not that much of a difference. We basically do the same thing. We are not the same size but we can both play. »
