Last week Trae Young was disappointingly bounced in the Second Round of the NBA 2K Players Tournament, and last night in the H-O-R-S-E Tournament he suffered a similar fate.

Trae Young was eliminated in the opening round by former NBA stud Chauncey Billups.

Trae had opened up an early lead putting H-O-R onto Billups before being shutout the rest of the way.

"It was worth a try, but doing a remote broadcast is not that simple," explains John Fricke.

Even though he was eliminated, Trae Young took the loss like a true champ.
