Nets fans taunt Luka Doncic with Trae Young chant
Brooklyn Nets fans are getting a reputation for being a brazen type, and the proved it by taunting Luka Doncic.
During Monday night’s game between the Nets and Dallas Mavericks, Nets fans weren’t shy about letting Doncic have it. While Doncic was at the free-throw line, many on hand at Barclays Center chanted “Trae Young’s better!”

On the night of last year’s NBA Draft, Doncic was selected No. 3 overall by the Atlanta Hawks. Young was taken two picks later by the Mavericks. The two players were then traded for each other.
It was a bit of a rough night for Doncic, who ended up on the floor after being completely faked out by Joe Harris. On the bright side, Doncic did receive his share of cheers during the evening.
One section of Nets fans is yelling "Trae Young's better," presumably at Luka Doncic. Most of the rest of the arena has cheered anytime he's made a good play. I guess he's already polarized NBA fans.

Nets fans have been vocal throughout the season and have trolled some of the other top players in the league as well.
