When Steph Curry entered the NBA, he quickly changed how the game was played.
Gone away were the traditional rules and mindsets, opening up the three-point shot to nearly anywhere on the court.
This has inspired other upcoming players to do the same, including Atlanta Hawks star, Trae Young.
Young has been consistently marveled for his Curry-esque range, a dominant shooter in his own right.
A recent video was shared from Chris Brickley via ‘Ball Don’t Lie’ of Young putting in work during the offseason, making 21 threes in a row.

Not only did Young sink 21 consecutive shots, but he did so from several feet beyond the arc.
This further demonstrates the Curry effect, that no shot is too far away for any NBA player.
Young is widely viewed as one of the NBA’s brightest young stars.
While he has performed well on an individual level, the Hawks’ best season in the Young era was a loss in the Eastern Conference Finals.
Young has helped this team make it to the playoffs in three straight years, which broke a three-year span without a playoff appearance.
The Hawks have several pieces alongside Young to help their cause for the upcoming season.
If fully healthy, many believe this team can be a contender in the Eastern Conference.
Dejounte Murray, Bogdan Bogdanovic, and Clint Capela are three of the players who can help them achieve this success.
Will the Hawks put all of the pieces together this season, resulting in a deep playoff run?
