For example: Atlanta Hawks star Trae Young ($6.6 million) is still on his rookie-scale deal, but his real-time contract value is $37.4 million, according to ProFitX projections. “We’re trying to be neutral,” said Ebrahim, who notes that Young “blew the roof off the model” based on the guard’s performance in the playoffs. “We’re trying to help athletes get paid while trying to help teams be smart about how they build their rosters.”

Trae Young is bringing more opportunities to those in his hometown. The city of Norman broke ground on the Young Family Athletic Center, a nearly $36 million sports facility, Wednesday morning thanks in part to a $4 million donation from the Trae Young Family Foundation. The hope is the multi-million dollar facility establishes Norman as a hub in the sports tourism market.
“I’m so excited for this,” Young said. “It was definitely tough as a kid growing up and having to travel around the whole country (for tournaments). … The biggest things are going to be here in Norman. It’s just special.” The YFAC, which sits on a 12-acre site near the intersection of 24th Avenue NW and Rock Creek Road, will reach an approximate size of 122,000 square feet by the time it opens in spring 2023.
It all started on Twitter. Somebody noticed that the baby on a package of “Hello Bello” diapers looked a lot like a toddler version of Atlanta Hawks star Trae Young. The point guard retweeted and called him Trae “Younger,” and it went viral. Hello Bello and Walmart teamed up to each donate 2000 diapers for every point Young scored in the NBA Eastern Conference Finals. Some 34 points later, 136,000 diapers were delivered to Helping Mamas.
