Young (knee) poised to rejoin Hawks vs. Hornets
Atlanta Hawks star point guard Trae Young is nearing a return from his knee injury after being upgraded to questionable to play Thursday against the Hornets in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Young was a full participant in practice Wednesday. It was his second practice after he scrimmaged with the Skyhawks, Atlanta's G League affiliate, on Tuesday.
Young has been out since he suffered a right MCL sprain during a win against the Nets in Brooklyn on Oct. 29.
"It's my knee, something that had to take a little more time than some other injuries," Young told reporters after practice in Atlanta on Wednesday. "… I feel good. [My conditioning is] going to get better as you play. They wouldn't even allow me to come back or even be close to coming back if my conditioning wasn't right or close to it."
Hawks assign guard Trae Young to G League team for practice
The Hawks assigned guard Trae Young to the College Park Skyhawks, their G League franchise, on Tuesday as he progresses from his injury rehabilitation and prepares to return to the Hawks’ active roster.
The Hawks announced Saturday that Young had continued to increase his conditioning activities and that they expected him to return to practice this week.
They added that they would update his status as they deemed it appropriate.
Young sustained a right knee MCL sprain Oct. 29 in the Hawks’ matchup against the Nets. He has missed the past 22 games after appearing in the first four and in half the first quarter of the game in Brooklyn.

Trae Young Could Return On Thursday
Hawks guard Trae Young has been listed as questionable for Thursday’s game in Charlotte, according to the team (Twitter link), and has a chance to play for the first time since October 29.
Young went down with a right knee injury in Atlanta’s fifth game of the regular season and was later diagnosed with a sprained MCL. He has been sidelined for 22 contests since then and will no longer be eligible for end-of-season awards, including All-NBA, since he won’t be able to meet the 65-game threshold.
In his four full games prior to the injury, Young averaged 20.8 points and 9.5 assists per contest, but was struggling with his shot, knocking down just 36.4% of his field goal attempts, including 5-of-26 three-pointers (19.2%).
