Trae Young shared a cryptic post on X at a crucial time, as Israel, backed by the US forces, launched an army operation in Iran on February 28. Fans immediately took to the comment section and called the Washington Wizards guard out for posting a completely out-of-context message on social media.
Young was traded to the Wizards during the mid-season trade period that ended on February 8. However, he has yet to appear on the court for the team due to his right knee injury, but he remains active on social media, often posting positive messages. His latest post on X read:
“Another Day, Another Opportunity”
The timings of his post attracted several questions from fans on social media who pointed out the attacks on Iran. One fan wrote:
“Trae you only tweet this at the worst time you live in WASHINGTON DC bro you NEXT”
Some fans even stated that the elite guard knew about world news and might be posting a conscious update. A user wrote:
“Bro hadn’t tweeted in two days, woke up saw the news, then tweeted this”
While Trae Young did not seem to factor in timing when posting his message on X, people around the world cautiously observe the geopolitical situation and anticipate the impacts.
Meanwhile, Washington fans eagerly await its superstars, Trae Young and Anthony Davis, to return to the court and guide the young core to a successful campaign. The former Atlanta Hawks guard even shared an update regarding his health.
“I’m in a great spot right now,” Trae Young shares injury update
Trae Young and the Wizards were in Atlanta to play back-to-back games against the Hawks. The Wizards lost both games. However, the last game might have especially stung the team, as the two players, who were traded to the Hawks from Washington, CJ McCollum and Corey Kispert, scored 58 combined points to lead the Hawks to victory.
Meanwhile, the elite guard received a video tribute from the home crowd and his former team and was visibly emotional in the moment. When asked about his feelings and timeline of his return, Young said:
“I’m in a great spot right now. I wish I could play tonight, my first night here, but it wasn’t in God’s plans. But I’m going to be back playing here a lot in the future… I’m leaving it up to the doctors. Just following the plan. The plan is going good so far. You never know.”
Young and Davis playing together can bring good things to Washington after a long time. Youngsters like Alex Sarr and Kyshawn George will receive much-needed veteran support and might look to make a playoff run next season.
