Young spotted alone

A fan spotted Trae Young walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of October 16, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Trae back on the market?

A rep for Trae Young was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the basketball player was splitting hit the internet Saturday (October 17), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Trae’s phone number?”
