Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young and Patrick Beverley, currently without a club, have been exchanging barbs on podcasts and social media. After receiving a criticism from Beverley, it was Trae&rsquo;s turn to respond with equally harsh remarks.<\/p><p>On Wednesday, the 37-year-old veteran fired at the Hawks player, ensuring that his former teammates do not see him as a good leader. In addition, he assured that the number 11 &ldquo;hasn&rsquo;t won enough yet&rdquo; to argue with him.<\/p><p>Young then didn&rsquo;t let it slide, sending a direct message to his controversial opponent. He initially listed the stars Beverley had the opportunity to play alongside throughout his career. He then insinuated that the point guard was carried along by his star teammates, such as LeBron James, Giannis Antetokounmpo, and Kawhi Leonard, and recalled a famous recent episode from Pat&rsquo;s career.<\/p><p><em>&ldquo;I won play-in games on the road and went to prepare for the playoffs. You won a play-in game at home and were climbing the table and celebrating like it was a championship. [&hellip;] And all that to, in the end, have only one conference final (on your resume)?
