Karl even tweeted that he disliked the rumors of Nate McMillan departing before the season ends. He believed that McMillan had what it takes to be a great coach and person. “There is too much player empowerment in this league sometimes“, he ended.

It is reported that Trae Young has access to power within his franchise, which he may be taking advantage of. Some believe that his friendship with Nick Ressler, son of the Hawks’ owner, Tony Ressler may give him added empowerment to behave “differently”.

Why did fans defend Trae Young?

The reason for their scuffle, according to the media, is that Trae Young refused to get into a shootaround. But more questions cropped up after he exited the game. However, despite his locker room issues, he has proved his mettle time and again.
