Atlanta Hawks star Trae Young joined Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show, discussing his friendship with Quavo, Atlanta roots, and championship focus.

Young's right leg was hit by his teammate Mouhamed Gueye as fell over under the basket. He held onto his right leg, but attempted to play for a few more seconds before being taken to the sideline. He then went to the locker room, and Atlanta announced the guard has a right knee sprain.

An injury expert shared his thoughts on what injury Trae Young could have suffered in the Hawks' last game against the Nets.
