HAWKS POSTCAST: When It Rains, It Pours For Jalen Johnson, Trae Young and Atlanta Hawks

As if matters couldn't get any worse for the Atlanta Hawks after losing Jalen Johnson to injury just less than 24 hours ago, Trae Young learned that he would not be selected as a reserve for the 2025 NBA All-Star Game. To add fuel to the fire and insult to injury (no pun intended), ATL entered Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse in a Thursday evening matchup versus the team with the league's best record led by three NBA All-Star selections (Darius Garland, Evan Mobley & Donovan Mitchell) and the Cleveland Cavaliers.DeShaun Tate and Tenitra Batiste recap the seventh consecutive loss for the Atlanta Hawks, the biggest loss to losing Jalen Johnson for the season, Trae Young's snub from "yet another" all-star game appearance including addressing the elephant in the room as to why.However, a couple College Park Skyhawks have been announced to participate in the NBA G-League Up Next Game including one that had a very unexpected outing just weeks ago when called up to assist the short-handed Hawks in securing a victory.#atlantahawks #truetoatlanta #nba #easternconference #allstarsnub #2025nbaallstarweekend #2025nbaallstargame #traeyoung #jalenjohnson #zaccharierisacher #daeqwonplowden #clevelandcavaliers #clevelandcavs #2025nbaallstarvoting #dariusgarland #jalenjohnsoninjury #deshauntate #tenitrabatiste #donovanmitchell #kevonharris #nbagleague #spida #jarrettallen #evanmobley Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! eBay Motors For parts that fit, head to eBay Motors and look for the green check.
