The Atlanta Hawks beat the Houston Rockets at Toyota Center, bringing an end to their 11-game home winning streak. Tough pill, but such is how the NBA works. Trae Young had a particularly bright day, as he posted 30 points and 14 assists. It also happens to be his fifth straight game where Young has 30+ points and 10+ assists.

To celebrate the whole win, Trae takes to Instagram with a unique twist. He accepts help from Drake for a jab against Dillon Brooks.

Atlanta Hawks vs Houston Rockets

The Hawks ended the night with a 134-127 victory over the Rockets. Saddiq Bey‘s three-pointer with 35 seconds left on the clock was a key play for Atlanta. And then it was the reserves’ game. Bogdan Bogdanovic and Onyeka Okongwu steered them for the final win.

The Rockets seemed to have heated towards the beginning of the second half. Jabari Smith Jr. led the way for Houston’s lead going into the fourth quarter. The man in question led the scoreboard with 34 points. He also had 13 rebounds, resulting in a double-double. Fred VanVleet comes next, with another double-double, 32 points and 15 assists.

All in all, the Rockets’ focus on the game and lack of offensive impact against an offensive team like Atlanta became the villain. Hopefully, their matchup will see Houston rectifying the mistakes.
