Young put the Hawks on his back, carrying them to an improbable victory in front of a vocal Boston crowd. Young capped off an incredible individual performance, nailing the game-winning three-pointer with just 1.8 seconds remaining. Dejounte Murray (suspension) will return for Thursday's Game 6 in Atlanta. Down 3-2 in the series, Young and the Hawks will look to maintain their momentum and send it to a Game 7.
