Atlanta Hawks’ star guard Trae Young has been sidelined with a sprained MCL in his right knee, set to be re-evaluated in four weeks. This follows an incident in their recent game against the Nets where a teammate inadvertently collided into his leg. Nickeil Alexander-Walker is stepping into the starting lineup, while Luke Kennard is expected to see increased playing time and could be a viable option in leagues emphasizing scoring and three-point shooting.

Trae Young will be sidelined for the Hawks’ upcoming game against the Cavaliers due to a right knee injury sustained last Wednesday. With the team yet to disclose the extent of the injury, Young’s status remains unclear for subsequent games. Nickeil Alexander-Walker is set to replace him in the starting lineup and could be a valuable pickup in fantasy leagues.

Trae Young will be sidelined for Friday’s game against the Pacers due to a right knee sprain sustained on Wednesday. An MRI was conducted, but results remain undisclosed. Nickeil Alexander-Walker is expected to start in Young’s absence, potentially boosting his fantasy value. Additionally, Luke Kennard and Keaton Wallace could see increased roles, making them intriguing short-term additions for fantasy managers.

Trae Young recorded his first double-double of the season with 15 points and 10 assists in the Hawks’ 117-100 loss to the Thunder. Despite the improvement in assists, Young’s scoring remains inconsistent, having yet to surpass 20 points in his last two outings. As the Hawks gear up for a four-game week starting in Chicago, Young aims to regain his scoring form and provide a steady hand in the backcourt.
