Trae Young Is Probable Saturday Against The Hornets
18 seconds agoHawks guard Trae Young has been playing through Achilles soreness, and he was on the Injury Report for Saturday as probable as Atlanta finishes a back-to-back with a 6:00 p.m. ET tip-off against the Hornets. Young was also probable on Friday before scoring 21 points with 11 assists in 35 minutes as the Hawks knocked off the Cavs. His 12 field goal attempts were well below his season average of 16.7 per game, but he still posted his fifth straight double-double. He had 20 points and 22 assists in his previous game on Wednesday and is running the Hawks' offense extremely efficiently right now. With LaMelo Ball (calf) and Tre Mann (back) sidelined, the Hornets are short-handed in the backcourt, setting up a great matchup for Young to put together another monster stat line even if his usage remains slightly limited.
