Hawks star point guard Trae Young was sent for an early shower on Saturday following a heated altercation with an official during the third quarter against the Pacers.
Young was ejected from the game after he threw the ball in the direction of an official “with force,” per Brad Rowland of the Locked on Hawks podcast. Atlanta’s point guard was visibly unhappy with a call from referee Sean Wall, before frustratedly firing the hard pass toward him.
Young was issued a technical foul and was escorted to the locker room by a Hawks assistant after his ejection.
