After the game, head coach Quin Snyder only answered one question and had a mic drop moment talking about Young’s performance. “Everybody should get their pens out and start writing about Trae Young,” Synder said. “He was poised with the officials, from the very beginning of the game, he got blitzed. He trusted his teammates, wasn’t selfish, got off the ball early to shooters, and then he started hitting Clint in the roll. He managed the game, took a charge with six minutes left in the game. “If anybody doesn’t look at his performance tonight and respect the mental toughness that he has to play with right now when everything is going through him. With admiration for his competitiveness and the trust he has in his teammates, the guy was unbelievable. Not diminishing other guys’ effort, but that was a hell of a performance, and we shouldn’t lose track of that because we lost the game.” -via Clutch Points / November 2, 2024
