In the Hawks' last three games, Young has been a force to be reckoned with. He has averaged an impressive 20 points, 11 assists, and 3 rebounds per game. His shooting percentages have been equally impressive, with a field goals percentage of 35.7%, a two-points percentage of 33.3%, and a three-points percentage of 37.5%. Young's ability to create scoring opportunities for himself and his teammates is truly remarkable.


One game that stands out in particular is the Hawks' recent matchup against the New York Knicks. In that game, Young recorded a double-double with 20 points and 11 assists. He showcased his playmaking skills by setting up his teammates for easy baskets and making smart decisions with the ball. His offensive rating of 125.1 and defensive rating of 110.5 demonstrate his impact on both ends of the court.


However, Young is not the only player to watch out for in this upcoming game. Clint Capela has been a dominant force in the paint, averaging an impressive 12 points and 12 rebounds per game over the last three games. His field goals percentage of 50% and free throws percentage of 100% make him a reliable scoring option for the Hawks.


On the other side, Karl-Anthony Towns has been leading the charge for the Timberwolves. In their previous games, Towns has averaged an impressive double-double with 19 points and 10 rebounds per game. His ability to stretch the floor with his shooting range poses a challenge for any defense.


As both teams prepare for this exciting matchup, it will be interesting to see how the Hawks' dynamic duo of Young and Capela matches up against Towns and the Timberwolves. The game is scheduled to take place on October 30th at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta. Fans can catch all the action on TV, with the game being broadcasted on BSSE for home viewers and BSN for away viewers.


Get ready for an intense battle between these two teams as they showcase their skills and compete for a victory. Will Trae Young continue his stellar performance and lead the Hawks to victory? Or will Karl-Anthony Towns and the Timberwolves spoil their plans? Only time will tell, but one thing is for sure - this game is not to be missed!
