A royal performance by @JackieYoung3 👑 ♣️ 21 PTS ♣️ 3 REB ♣️ 5 AST ♣️ 3-6 3PM ♣️ 9-12 FG #ALLINLV https://t.co/d

What happened: Jackie Young scored 21 points on 9-of-12 shooting, hitting 3 of 6 from beyond the arc while adding five assists and three rebounds. Las Vegas controlled the game from start to finish in a 92-73 final over Golden State. Young was the most efficient scorer on the floor.

Why it matters: The result extends Las Vegas's edge in the season series against Golden State, which it also won the prior meeting 91-81 on May 31. Young's efficient two-way scoring gives Las Vegas a reliable offensive anchor as it builds momentum in the 2026 regular season. The double-digit margin underscores the gap between the clubs in their recent matchups.

By the numbers: Young's line: 21 PTS (9-12 FG, 3-6 3PM), 5 AST, 3 REB. Las Vegas has now beaten Golden State in consecutive meetings — 91-81 on May 31 and 92-73 today, the latter a 19-point margin.

What to watch: Las Vegas will look to carry the shooting form into its next outing as the regular season continues.
