| 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. The Scoop:Young may have played his last game in an Atlanta uniform Wednesday night. Young will likely 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. Apr 18 10:55 ET - | ||||||||
| 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. The Scoop: 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. The Hawks will now attempt to play their way into the postseason with two wins in the Play-In Tournament. Atlanta will face off against the Bulls on Wednesday night in the Eastern Conference 9-10 matchup. Apr 14 10:40 ET |
| 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. The Scoop: 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. The Scoop: 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. Apr 11 11:48 ET |
| 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. The Scoop: Coach Quin 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. Apr 10 9:58 ET |
