Trae Young's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (finger) won't play on Sunday versus the Orlando Magic. The exact nature of the injury remains a mystery. However, the multi-time All-Star was questionable earlier in the day on Saturday, so it's apparent the issue is more severe than initially believed. Nonetheless, fantasy managers will hope for the best. But until Young returns to the lineup, Dejounte Murray is the favorite to lead the way for the Hawks offensively. Additionally, Jalen Johnson, Saddiq Bey, and Bogdan Bogdanovic should also benefit from a production standpoint.

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (finger) is questionable for Sunday's game against Orlando. He scored only 11 points on Friday night and suffered a thigh injury during the contest. However, a finger issue that might keep him off the floor on Sunday night. Young has missed only five games this season. But if he can't suit up, Dejounte Murray would be a lock for all fantasy lineups. At the same time, Bogdan Bogdanovic, Saddiq Bey, and Jalen Johnson would also benefit.

Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young has steered himself clear of trade rumors and wants to remain on the team. "It's this type of league where things change and happen, but obviously, my mindset is staying in Atlanta right now. I don't get caught up in the rumors and all that stuff, my contract is locked in for a couple of years, and I don't have very much to say about it right now," Young told Jameelah Johnson of atlhawksfans.com. From a personal perspective, Young is having another fantastic season, but Atlanta is on track to a losing record and missing the playoffs, which definitely isn't a pleasant situation for the star point guard or the team. This is the second season of a five-year, $215 million extension Young signed with the Hawks in 2021.

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (concussion protocol) has received the questionable tag for the Friday night game against the Dallas Mavericks. He still hasn't fully cleared concussion protocol just yet, so fantasy managers will have to wait and see if he can get through it before tipoff on Friday. In the two games that he's missed so far, the Hawks have suffered a 15-point and 22-point loss during a mini west coast swing. Missing their star guard who's averaging 26.9 points and 10.8 assists per game is always hard to overcome. If he misses his third consecutive game, Dejounte Murray will receive a bump in usage again while Bogdan Bogdanovic should remain in the starting lineup.

Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young (concussion) has been ruled out for the team's Wednesday game against the Golden State Warriors. The star point guard suffered a concussion against the Cavaliers on January 20th and missed the last game while in the concussion protocol. Remaining in protocol on Wednesday, Dejounte Murray and Bogdan Bogdanovic are expected to be the starting backcourt in Young's absence. Both players are likely to experience a significant increase in usage with Young out, providing ample opportunities for production. Young has been averaging 26.8 points and 10.8 assists in 36 minutes per game this season.
