Won't play Wednesday
Young won't play Wednesday against the Bulls due to a right rib contusion, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
Analysis
Wednesday's game is the second leg of a back-to-back set, and Young played 38 minutes Tuesday against the Suns with 43 points (13-31 FG, 6-12 3Pt, 11-14 FT), five assists, three rebounds and three steals. He apparently picked up an injury during that contest and the Hawks are likely exercising caution. Guys like Vit Krejci, Dyson Daniels and Garrison Mathews will likely have to soak up a ton of minutes Wednesday.

Puts up season-high 43 points
Young (illness) contributed 43 points (13-31 FG, 6-12 3Pt, 11-14 FT), five assists, three rebounds and three steals across 38 minutes in Tuesday's 122-117 win over Phoenix.
Analysis
Initially listed as questionable heading into Tuesday's contest with an illness, Young played through the ailment and took on a monstrous 44 percent usage rate while the Hawks were down two key scoring options in Jalen Johnson (shoulder) and De'Andre Hunter (foot). Though he bludgeoned his way to a season-high scoring total, he wasn't particularly efficient from the field matched his season low with five assists. If either or both of Johnson and Hunter can return for Wednesday's game against the Bulls, Young would likely sacrifice some of the scoring burden, though his assist count could rise back up.

Analysis

Questionable to play Tuesday
Young (Achilles/illness) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Suns, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
Analysis
Young has consistently been listed on the injury report due to right Achilles tendinitis, but he is now under the weather, which jeopardizes his availability for Tuesday's home game. Dyson Daniels, Vit Krejci and Garrison Mathews would be in line for more playing time if Young is unable to play.

Saturday's game postponed
Young (Achilles) and the Hawks will not play Saturday against the Rockets due to severe weather and hazardous icy conditions in the Atlanta area, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
Analysis
The Hawks' next contest is against Phoenix on Tuesday, but the NBA has yet to announce when Saturday's game will be rescheduled. However, the situation is worth monitoring in case Tuesday's matchup is also postponed due to ongoing weather hazards.

Probable for Saturday
Young (Achilles) is probable for Saturday's game against the Rockets, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
Analysis
Young has been a mainstay on the injury report due to right Achilles tendinitis, though he is expected to suit up for his 10th consecutive contest Saturday. Over his last five outings, the star point guard has averaged 25.6 points, 11.8 assists, 2.4 rebounds and 1.0 steals across 34.2 minutes per game.

Solid production in loss
Young supplied 21 points (6-15 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 8-9 FT), two rebounds, seven assists and one steal in 34 minutes during Thursday's 123-115 loss to the Suns.
Analysis
Young came into this game on the injury report with Achilles soreness, but that's been a consistent designation for him during the season. Despite ending up as a team-worst minus-15, Young finished with a solid stat line, if not a little short of his season averages. Young has delivered at least 20 points and seven assists in six straight games, including three 30-point efforts and a 20-assist performance during this stretch. The point guard is leading the league in assists per game (12.1).

Available vs. Phoenix

Analysis
Young will be good to go Thursday when the Hawks take on the Suns in Phoenix. The superstar guard is coming off an impressive performance in which he scored 24 points and dished out 20 assists while also hitting the game-winning shot at the buzzer in Utah against the Jazz.
