Trae Young Officially Available Tuesday

Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young (Achilles) will be in the lineup on Tuesday against the Portland Trail Blazers. The team has upgraded Young to available after initially listing him as probable for the contest. Young ranks sixth in the league with 45 double-doubles, averaging 24.1 points and 11.5 assists for the season. He narrowly missed out on a double-double in this season's first meeting with the Trail Blazers, posting 29 points and eight assists in a 114-110 loss on Nov. 17.

Trae Young Likely To Face Portland

Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young (Achilles) will likely remain in the lineup on Tuesday against the Portland Trail Blazers, as the team lists him as probable on the injury report. Atlanta continues to have Young's name on the report, but he has missed only a handful of games this season, and his nagging Achilles issue does not seem to have any impact on his performances. Young nearly had a 20-20 game with assists against the Milwaukee Bucks in his last outing and will attempt to post a sixth consecutive double-double on Tuesday. It would match his longest such streak this season.

Trae Young Playing Versus Milwaukee

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (Achilles) will play on Sunday against the Bucks. The Achilles issue has plagued him nearly the entire year. However, he hasn't missed a game in weeks, so fantasy managers weren't concerned about his availability for this one. Young has averaged 26.0 points, 9.3 assists, and 4.0 rebounds in four meetings with Milwaukee this season. Unfortunately, he's shot a rough 21.4% from deep during those contests.

Trae Young Upgraded To Available Thursday

Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young (Achilles) has received the green light to play in Thursday's matchup against the Miami Heat. The team has upgraded his status from probable to available, clearing the way for Young to make his eighth consecutive appearance. Over the last seven games, Young has produced five double-doubles. He keeps the Hawks' offense ticking each night, although Young's shooting performances have been somewhat inconsistent. He has particularly struggled against the Heat, nailing only 28.2 percent of his shots to average 13.0 points and 12.3 assists in the matchup this season.

Clint Capela Absent For An Eighth Consecutive Game

Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (finger) will miss an eighth consecutive game on Thursday against the Miami Heat. After initially missing time for personal reasons, Capela was diagnosed with a ligament injury in the fourth metacarpal of his left hand. Following the diagnosis, he was ruled out for 3-4 weeks, meaning the 2024-25 regular season is likely over for Capela. It has been a disappointing campaign for the Swiss big man, who lost his starting job to Onyeka Okongwu in January. Okongwu has thrived in the role, averaging 14.8 points, 9.8 rebounds, 1.1 blocks, and 1.2 steals. Dominick Barlow and Mouhamed Gueye will take on the backup minutes with Capela unavailable.

Trae Young Expected To Play Against Heat

Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young (Achilles) is probable for Thursday's tilt against the Miami Heat. He will likely be good to go for an eighth consecutive game despite dealing with tendinitis in his right Achilles tendon. This has been a nagging issue for Young throughout the season, but he has put together a strong campaign, averaging a big double-double with 24.1 points and 11.4 assists. Young has had four steaks of at least four consecutive double-doubles and could post a fifth in Thursday's game.

Caris LeVert Available On Saturday Evening

Atlanta Hawks forward Caris LeVert (knee) will suit up on Saturday versus the Warriors. The veteran has played well since being traded to Atlanta, averaging 16.4 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 1.0 steals. Fortunately, the knee soreness won't keep him off the floor. With so many injuries on the Atlanta roster, LeVert should remain involved enough to warrant consideration for any fantasy lineup, although his presence will likely mean less work for Georges Niang.

Trae Young Good To Go Versus The Warriors

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (Achilles) is good to go for Saturday's meeting with the Warriors. The former Oklahoma Sooner was listed as probable heading into this contest. But that's nothing new, considering he's played through Achilles tendinitis for nearly the entire 2024-25 campaign. Young struggled versus Golden State when these clubs met back in November, amassing only 12 points and shooting 1-for-6 from behind the arc. Still, it's logical to assume he'll be much more productive, especially with so many injuries on the roster.

Clint Capela Not Playing Tuesday Versus Hornets

Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports that Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (personal) will miss Tuesday's contest against the Charlotte Hornets due to a personal matter. This evening's game will be the veteran big man's fourth consecutive missed contest, and his next chance to play will come Sunday against the Golden State Warriors. Mouhamed Gueye and Dominick Barlow should continue to receive some added minutes while Capela is out of action.

Trae Young Available For Tuesday's Matchup With Hornets

Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young (Achilles) is available for Tuesday's matchup against the Charlotte Hornets. Young has been dealing with an Achilles issue for a long time, but the injury won't keep him from playing against the Hornets. The 27-year-old posted 28 points, 12 assists, six rebounds, and two steals across 39 minutes in a loss to Brooklyn on Sunday. The superstar guard is always a must-start in fantasy, especially with Hornets point guard LaMelo Ball (wrist) now questionable for the evening matchup.

Trae Young Probable For Tuesday's Clash Against Hornets

Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young (Achilles) is considered probable for Tuesday's matchup against LaMelo Ball and the Charlotte Hornets. The two exciting playmakers are set to go head-to-head despite Young dealing with an Achilles problem. However, this has been the case all year, so fantasy managers should not read too much into it. Young ended a shooting slump on Sunday against the Brooklyn Nets, racking up 28 points and 12 assists with a 9-for-18 effort from the field. He has averaged 29.0 points and 9.0 assists with 41.5 percent shooting in the matchup against Charlotte this season.

Trae Young Good To Go Against Clippers

Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young (Achilles) is good to go for Friday's matchup against the Los Angeles Clippers. He has received his customary status upgrade from probable to available. The Hawks superstar has been on the injury report throughout the season, but he has missed only five games. Heading into Friday's contest, Young has recorded back-to-back games with 30-plus points, and he continues to deliver assists at a high volume, averaging 12.8 dimes in March.

Trae Young Likely To Play Against Clippers On Friday

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (Achilles) appeared on the injury report for Friday's matchup with the Los Angeles Clippers but he's considered probable while he continues to deal with Achilles tendinitis. The superstar point guard remains a must-start in every fantasy format despite his shooting efficiency taking a big dip this year. He's currently leading the league in assists at 11.5 per contest while he sits at 18th in points per game with 24.0. His playmaking abilities have been the main attraction in March as he's averaging an astounding 12.8 per night through five games so far.

Clint Capela Won't Suit Up Against Clippers

Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (personal) will miss Friday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers for family reasons. This will be the second consecutive missed game for the veteran big man and his next chance to play will come Sunday against the Brooklyn Nets. Mouhamed Gueye and Dominick Barlow should continue to receive some added minutes in Capela's absence. If fantasy managers are looking for big man streamers, Gueye started in the Hawks' last game and posted six points, three rebounds, one assist, two steals, and two blocks. He could be helpful to boost some stats in deep category leagues.

Caris LeVert Returns For Hawks Wednesday

Atlanta Hawks guard/forward Caris LeVert (finger) will be available for Wednesday's meeting with the Charlotte Hornets. After missing Monday's matchup against the Philadelphia 76ers due to a finger injury, Atlanta initially listed LeVert as questionable for Wednesday's game. LeVert has looked great in a Hawks uniform, averaging 20.6 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 3.4 assists across his last five appearances. Terance Mann and Vit Krejci will likely play fewer minutes now that LeVert is back in the lineup.

Trae Young Slated To Suit Up Against Charlotte

Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young (quadriceps) is good to go for Wednesday's matchup with the Charlotte Hornets. Young dropped out of the lineup on Monday against the Philadelphia 76ers due to a left quadriceps contusion he suffered over the weekend. However, the injury won't keep him sidelined this evening. The star point guard is averaging 24.6 points, 2.7 rebounds, and 11.7 assists per game since the All-Star break, and he will provide a massive boost for fantasy managers tonight against the Hornets.

Clint Capela Unavailable Versus Hornets

Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports that Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (personal) will be out of action for Wednesday's matchup with the Charlotte Hornets due to personal reasons. The 30-year-old is set to miss his first contest since the All-Star break. Capela's absence won't impact fantasy much this evening, as he's played under 20 minutes in five of his last six outings. Dominick Barlow is Onyeka Okongwu and will likely take on extra minutes for the team's frontcourt against Charlotte.

Caris LeVert Iffy Wednesday

Atlanta Hawks guard/forward Caris LeVert (finger) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's clash against the Charlotte Hornets. He has sprained his left middle finger and may be forced to sit out a second consecutive game. If he returns, LeVert is a candidate to fill in for Trae Young (quadriceps) in the starting unit, who is also questionable for the game. Terance Mann and Vit Krejci should see a bump in playing time if LeVert remains out. On Monday against the Philadelphia 76ers, Mann had one of his best games of the season with 19 points, six rebounds, and four assists in 33 minutes off the bench.

Trae Young Questionable To Play Against Hornets

Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young (quadriceps) is considered questionable for Wednesday's matchup against the Charlotte Hornets. Young dropped out of the lineup on Monday against the Philadelphia 76ers due to a left quadriceps contusion he suffered over the weekend. Keaton Wallace started at point guard against the 76ers, while Dyson Daniels took on more playmaking responsibilities. Daniels led the team with 25 points and nine assists. Wallace struggled with his shooting and notched seven points with six assists across 31 minutes. The two are likely to continue in expanded roles if Young doesn't return on Wednesday.

Caris LeVert Is Out For Monday's Matchup With Philadelphia

According to Lauren L. Williams of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Atlanta Hawks guard Caris LeVert (knee) won't play against the Philadelphia 76ers on Monday. LeVert will be sidelined for the first time since being dealt to Atlanta on February 6th due to a left middle finger sprain. Despite the setback, the 30-year-old has fit in well with his new club, finishing with at least 20 points in four of the last five games. Terance Mann and Keaton Wallace will likely carry the team's backcourt with LeVert and Trae Young (quadricep) out of action this evening.
