Sat Apr 8 202308:23Trae Young Records A 20-20 Game
Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young posted a 20-20 game Friday with 27 points and a career-high 20 assists in a 136-131 overtime loss to Philadelphia. It was an impressive display of playmaking, although Young also had his difficulties handling the ball, committing nine turnovers. He shot 7-for-14 from the field and 12-for-14 at the line, adding three rebounds and four steals to his tally in 43 minutes. Young has now gone for double-double numbers five times in his last six appearances. He is averaging 26.2 points and a career-high 10.2 assists for the season, being one of only three players in the league to get at least 26 points and eight assists per game across the campaign.

Wed Apr 5 202318:45Trae Young Set To Play Against Washington
Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (illness) will return from a one-game absence to play against the Washington Wizards on Wednesday. Young seems to be recovered from an illness which forced him to sit Tuesday's game and should resume his normal starting role against the Wizards. Bogdan Bogdanovic (injury management), who started in Young's absence, has been ruled out so AJ Griffin and Aaron Holiday should see additional minutes off the bench.

Wed Apr 5 202314:59Trae Young Questionable Wednesday
Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young (illness) could miss another game Wednesday against Washington, with the team listing him as questionable for the matchup. Young was unavailable Tuesday against Chicago with a non-COVID illness and it remains to be seen if he's recovered well enough to be ready to play Wednesday. Bogdan Bogdanovic entered the starting unit Tuesday and had a great performance with a team-high 26 points. However, Bogdanovic himself is also questionable for Wednesday with right knee injury management, so AJ Griffin could be the next man up. Dejounte Murray also always benefits from Young's absence, having averaged 25.3 points and 8.3 assists in games without him this season.

Tue Apr 4 202316:21Trae Young Downgraded To Out On Tuesday
Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (illness) has been downgraded on Tuesday and will not play against the Chicago Bulls due to a non-COVID illness. The 24-year-old was originally listed as questionable, but it seems as though the illness is a little too severe to play through despite the Hawks' needing this win to stay in a firm spot for the play-in tournament. While the lead guard is out, Dejounte Murray will take on a bigger workload while Bogdan Bogdanovic will likely move into the starting lineup.

Mon Apr 3 202318:26Trae Young Listed As Questionable For Tuesday
Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (illness) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Chicago Bulls. The 24-year-old is dealing with a non-COVID related illness, so he'll likely still suit up on Tuesday. The Hawks hold a one game lead over the Bulls, so this game is important for both teams. However, Bogdan Bogdanovic would likely be asked to move into the starting five, assuming Young does sit out. Dejounte Murray is expected to play a majority of the point guard minutes if Young is unavailable.

Mon Mar 27 202309:34Trae Young Totals 28 Points, 10 Assists Sunday
Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young notched another double-double on Sunday, scoring a game-high 28 points and delivering 10 assists in a 123-119 loss to Memphis. The Hawks were completing a back-to-back set, but Young was nicely rested for the contest after getting ejected Saturday versus Indiana, and he proved his sharpness with 7-for-14 shooting from the field. Young was 3-for-5 with the three-ball and finished 11-for-12 at the foul line, adding a pair of rebounds to his tally. Atlanta continues to play very inconsistent basketball, but Young has been in great form all season and sits eighth in the league with 36 double-doubles.

Sat Mar 25 202318:34Trae Young Ejected On Saturday
Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young has been ejected from Saturday's game against the Indiana Pacers. Young was not happy with an offensive foul on him. He responded by throwing the ball at an official. That resulted in Young getting tossed out of Saturday's contest. Dejounte Murray will move into the starting five for at least the rest of this game. However, it wouldn't be shocking if Young was suspended because of his actions. That being said, AJ Griffin, Saddiq Bey, and Murray would all be asked to take on bigger roles, assuming Young misses more than Saturday's game.

Sat Mar 25 202316:17Trae Young Will Play Against The Pacers
Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (calf) will play on Saturday night against the Pacers. There was some doubt he wouldn't be healthy enough to suit up. However, he's good to go. Young has averaged 24.0 points, 10.5 assists, and shot 56.3% from deep in two meetings with Indiana this season, so that should tell fantasy managers all they need to know.

Fri Mar 24 202323:55Trae Young Questionable Versus The Pacers
Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (calf) is questionable for Saturday's matchup against Indiana. Young has averaged 24.0 points, 10.5 assists, and shot 56.3% from deep in two meetings with the Pacers this season, so you can bet fantasy managers want to see him out there. However, if he can't suit up, Dejounte Murray (non-COVID-illness), who was removed from the injury report after missing his last two games, will take over the ball-handling duties. As a result, Murray may lead the way offensively and receive a bump in usage. At the same time, John Collins, De'Andre Hunter (knee), and Bogdan Bogdanovic could benefit on the scoring end.

Wed Mar 22 202311:05Trae Young Collects Another Double-Double In Win
Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young registered his 34th double-double of the season while they destroyed the Detroit Pistons by 22 points on Tuesday. The 24-year-old posted 30 points, 12 assists, and three rebounds while hitting seven of his 19 shots and three of his nine threes. He also went 13-for-15 from the line and only turned the ball over three times. His value is currently ranked just inside the top 50 due to his lower field goal percentage and higher turnover numbers this season. Despite that, he's still going to be a top option for any fantasy teams in the playoffs.

Sun Mar 19 202300:23Trae Young Questionable Against The Spurs
Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (knee) is considered questionable for Sunday's matchup with the San Antonio Spurs. Young scored a team-high 25 points in Friday's win over the Golden State Warriors. However, he's in danger of missing Sunday's festivities because of a right knee contusion. If Young doesn't suit up, Dejounte Murray would presumably take over the ball-handling duties, potentially resulting in a bump in usage. At the same time, Bogdan Bogdanovic, Saddiq Bey, and AJ Griffin could see enough work to warrant fantasy consideration, no matter who ends up starting.

Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young had an outstanding game against Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors on Friday, logging 25 points, six rebounds and 12 assists in a 127-119 win. He shot 8-for-18 from the field, hitting 3-for-6 from deep, and posted one assist on the defensive end. Young is averaging 27.1 points and 9.6 assists since Quin Snyder took over as the Hawks head coach. He keeps picking up double-doubles for fun and should play a very important role in the fantasy playoffs, with Atlanta trying to secure a postseason berth.

Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young had his third highest-scoring performance of the season Monday against Minnesota, leading all scorers with 41 points in a 136-115 loss. He had a poor 1-for-4 record from deep but shot a good 15-for-15 overall from the field and made all of his 10 attempts at the foul line. Young capped off his line with six rebounds, seven assists and one steal. The two-time All-Star sits third in the league in assists but focused more on scoring here and did it extremely well. A big finish to the season is expected from Young as the Hawks continue to battle for a postseason berth.

Sun Mar 12 202308:56Trae Young Records A Big Double-Double Against Boston
Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young recorded a 35-point, 13-assist double-double in Saturday's 134-125 defeat to Boston. He led all scorers in the game, shooting 12-for-27 from the field with a 4-for-11 record from outside. Young's line also included three rebounds and three turnovers across 34 minutes. The two-time All-Star has really picked up his playmaking during the season half of the season, finishing without double-digit assists only six times in his past 20 appearances. His scoring numbers have dipped a bit this month, but his Saturday's effort should give Young much-needed momentum to kick into gear again.

Thu Mar 2 202322:33Trae Young Probable Versus Portland
Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (groin) is expected to play on Friday night against the Portland Trail Blazers. The 24-year-old is listed as probable on the injury report because of right groin soreness. However, barring a significant setback, he should be out there. Young has played well of late, scoring 31 points or more in each of his last three games. His three-point shooting hasn't been consistent, although category managers will accept it as long as he continues putting up points.

Sun Feb 26 202321:59Trae Young Sinks The Nets On Sunday
Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young didn't need to jack up as many threes as usual to lead the team in scoring as they grabbed a two-point win in a shootout against the Brooklyn Nets on Sunday. The star sharpshooter collected 34 points, eight assists, three rebounds, and two steals on 12-for-26 shooting, 1-for-5 from three, and 9-for-9 from the line. Young hasn't been able to knock down threes at the rate he has in past seasons, but he's currently one of the best players in fantasy basketball for points, assists, threes, steals, and free throw percentage.

Sat Feb 25 202307:54Trae Young Continues Productive Spell Friday
Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young led all scorers with 34 points and had nine assists as interim head coach Joe Prunty made a winning debut with a 136-119 victory over Cleveland Friday.

In only 32 minutes of action, he was also able to post three rebounds and one steal with two turnovers. Young has been on a tear for over a month now, producing 11 double-doubles across his last 14 appearances and averaging 25.1 points for February. A meeting with the new-look Nets awaits him next and it's a good spot for Young to keep up his great form.

Sun Feb 12 202308:27Trae Young Delivers Season-High 17 Assists
Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young notched his eighth double-double in nine games against San Antonio on Saturday, posting 24 points and a season-high 17 assists. He also bagged four rebounds, one steal and one block, pushing the team to a 125-106 victory. Young shot 9-for-19 from the field, including 2-for-5 from downtown, and had a perfect 4-for-4 record at the foul line. Young's career high for assists stands at 18, which he had in a game against Philadelphia in 2020. He's been handing out dimes like crazy lately, so this shouldn't be the last time this season he gets near 20 assists in a game. Young is averaging 10.2 assists overall for the season with 26.9 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.0 steals.

Fri Feb 10 202309:11Trae Young Gashes The Suns For 36 Points
Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young was unstoppable against the Phoenix Suns on Thursday in a 116-107 win that moved them back to .500 on the season. The Oklahoma product posted 36 points, 12 assists, seven rebounds, and two steals on 10-for-18 shooting overall, 5-for-8 from beyond the arc, and 11-for-12 from the line. This was a much-needed bounce back after shooting just 4-for-14 in the game before. Young and company finally are bringing in some help in the form of Saddiq Bey which could mean even higher assist totals for the fifth-year guard.

Wed Feb 8 202311:01Trae Young Collects Another 16-Assist Game In Loss
Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young continues to flash his playmaking ability as he posted his second 16-assist game of the season during a nine-point loss to the New Orleans Pelicans. While his shooting night wasn't much to write home about, Young was able to post 16 points, three rebounds, and one steal to go along with the 16 assists. He could only muster a 4-for-14 shooting line while adding 2-for-8 from beyond the arc, but as a high-volume shooter, he's bound to have nights like this. The Hawks could be a player at the trade deadline, so the Oklahoma product could have some new faces around him soon.
