Danny Richardson Young (born July 26, 1962 in Raleigh, North Carolina) is a former professional basketball player. A 6' 3" guard who attended Wake Forest University, he played ten seasons (1984–1993; 1994–1995) in the NBA, spending time with the Seattle SuperSonics, Portland Trail Blazers, Los Angeles Clippers, Detroit Pistons, and Milwaukee Bucks. Young was a key reserve on the 1990 Blazers team that reached the NBA Finals, and he retired with 2,622 career points and 1,674 assists.
In Game 4 of 1990 NBA Finals, Young's desperation three-pointer didn't beat the buzzer because he didn't release the ball in time.
