Trae Young drew a foul by jumping into Jalen Green without making contact with him. That doesn’t bode well for how this game is going to be officiated – 8:14 PM

More on this storyline
The teams ended up getting in each other’s faces for a bit before both sides had to get separated by the officials. After some brief pushing and shoving, which involved Trae Young, cooler heads prevailed and all were able to go on with their evening. During the separation period, however, Murray gestured that someone on the Rockets (presumably Smith) was “too small” to guard him. -via For The Win / November 26, 2022
Trae Young showed some love for Kevin Huerter postgame 🙌 -via Twitter @ClutchPointsApp / November 24, 2022

What did you see as your role last season being a mentor for Kevin, Jalen and the rest of the group? John Wall: Just trying to be a leader. Try to talk to these guys, teach them everything I’ve seen from being a professional on and off the court. Enjoy it, don’t take anything for granted. Just try to be professional and do things the right way. Don’t ever get accustomed to losing. I went through losing my first two years in the league, but don’t ever accept it. As long as you’re playing basketball the right way and you put your work in, the tape will always turn for you. Don’t fall into the trap of “If I’m going to be a loser in the league, I’ll just do it this way.” -via The Athletic / November 16, 2022
