TRAE YOUNG NEWS

Finishes season with 22 points Young finished Wednesday's 131-116 Play-In Game loss to Chicago with 22 points (4-12 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 11-13 FT), two rebounds and 10 assists over 43 minutes.

Impact Young may have played his last game in an Atlanta uniform Wednesday night. Young will definitely test the market after a disappointing end to the 2023-24 season, and it seems to be foregone conclusion that he'll be headed elsewhere. The Hawks went 12-11 during Young's most recent absence, proving that the current roster can play break-even ball without him. Young's departure will free up considerable cap space, and with Dejounte Murray locked into a deal, the Hawks may look for a capable off-the-ball guard to complement him.

Top distributor in double-double Young provided 12 points (4-9 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds and 12 assists in 32 minutes during Sunday's 157-115 loss to Indiana.

Impact Young led all Hawks in assists while ending as one of five players with a double-digit point total and as the lone Atlanta player with a double-double in a losing effort. Young ended the regular season with 37 double-doubles, including in two of the last three contests of the year.

Hands out seven assists in loss Young had 19 points (6-12 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 4-6 FT), two rebounds, seven assists and one steal in 27 minutes during Friday's 109-106 loss to the Timberwolves.

Impact Young is simply getting enough reps to be ready for the Play-In Tournament, and while the star floor general continues to look a bit rusty, he's getting the minutes he needs. He's racked up 33 points, 18 assists, six rebounds and two steals in his two appearances since returning, though it's unclear whether he'll be available for the season finale against the Pacers on Sunday given the Hawks already clinched a Play-In berth.

Makes most of limited minutes Young (finger) tallied 14 points (5-5 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 11 assists, four rebounds and one steal across 21 minutes Wednesday in the Hawks' 115-114 loss to the Hornets.

Impact As expected, Young was on a minute restriction Wednesday while making his first appearance since Feb. 23 following a 23-game absence due to surgery to repair a torn tendon in his left fifth finger, but the point guard still provided strong returns for managers who chose to activate him right away. He was a bit sloppy with five turnovers in his return, but the perfect shooting night and 11 assists more than made up for it. Expect Young's minutes to remain capped again in the Hawks' next game Friday in Minnesota, though he shouldn't be quite as limited as he was Wednesday.

Hawks All-Star Trae Young starts against Hornets after missing 23 games with finger injury

Available with minutes restriction Young (finger) is available for Wednesday's game against the Hornets but will have a minutes restriction, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Impact Coach Quinn Snyder didn't specify how many minutes Young would play following his 23-game absence, but the Hawks will presumably be cautious with their point guard, even as they attempt to secure a spot in the Play-In Tournament. However, it's encouraging that the 25-year-old will be back in action, and he should give the team a significant boost, even as his playing time is being monitored.

Could return for Wednesday's game Young (finger) could return as early as Wednesday against Charlotte, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Impact Young has been sidelined since late February due to a torn ligament in his left fifth finger, but he was recently cleared for team practices and full contact. The Hawks have just three games remaining in the regular season and are fighting for a spot in the Play-In Tournament, so Young's presence would provide a boost to close out the year. However, once he's cleared to return, it's possible he faces some sort of minutes restriction following his lengthy absence.
