Good to go Thursday Young (ankle) is available for Thursday's game against the Bulls, Brad Rowland of PeachtreeHoops.com reports.

Impact Young was considered a game-time decision due to the ankle injury he picked up during Tuesday's loss at Boston, but he's ready to take the court versus Chicago. The 22-year-old has averaged 29.8 points, 3.0 rebounds and 8.4 assists in 34.2 minutes while shooting 49.5 percent from the field and 39.3 percent from deep across the past five contests.

Impact Young sustained an ankle injury during Tuesday's loss to Boston and is officially questionable for Thursday's matchup. Rather than participating in shootaround, Young received treatment for the ankle Thursday morning, so the Hawks will presumably see how he progresses in the hours leading up to the 7 p.m. ET tipoff before deciding on his status. If Young is unable to suit up, Delon Wright would likely pick up the start at point guard.

Listed questionable Thursday Young (ankle) is considered questionable for Thursday's game against the Bulls.

Impact Young tweaked his ankle during Tuesday night's loss to Boston, but he was able to gut it out and play through the injury en route to a 31-point night. He's likely dealing with a decent amount of discomfort, so the Hawks will see how he feels Thursday before updating his status. In the event Young is held out, Bogdan Bogdanovic would be in line for an increased role, while Delon Wright would likely get the starting nod at point guard.

Shakes off ankle injury, scores 31 Young closed Tuesday's 107-98 loss to Boston with 31 points (12-25 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 5-6 FT), two rebounds and six assists across 37 minutes.

Impact Young briefly exited Tuesday's game after tweaking his ankle due to Marcus Smart stepping under Young's landing space on a jumpshot. The injury didn't seem to affect Young, as he finished with 31 points on efficient shooting. The point guard closed February with averages of 28.2 points, 9.7 assists and 3.0 rebounds in 34.4 minutes, so Tuesday's performance was nothing out of the ordinary.

Young has been held under 20 points just twice in February, but on both occasions, he's been able to bounce back in the next game for an outburst of 30 points or more.
