Keaton Wallace

Young has been able to play through their last two games with this heel contusion, but he did miss a game last weekend because of it. If he were to miss this one, Vit Krejci could start in his place, as he did in Trae's last absence, with Keaton Wallace coming off the bench. However, neither player would be worth streaming, and Jalen Johnson and Dyson Daniels would likely take on extra playmaking duties.

Young did not play in Saturday's loss to the Grizzlies, with Vit Krejci replacing him in the starting lineup. However, while Krejci and Keaton Wallace played most of the minutes at point guard, neither did enough to merit being streamed if Young remains out. However, his absence did benefit starters Dyson Daniels and Jalen Johnson, as they combined to dish out 14 assists against the Grizzlies.

With Trae Young (heel) out, Krejci made his first start of the season on Saturday. He wasn't a great streaming option beforehand, and that's how things played out against the Grizzlies. Keaton Wallace (five points, one rebound, four assists, and one 3-pointer) played 23 minutes off the bench, and the Hawks also looked to get Dyson Daniels and Jalen Johnson more playmaking opportunities. If Young is not back for Monday's game against the Timberwolves, fantasy managers should pass on Krejci.

Krejci will make his first start of the season on Saturday, stepping in for the injured Trae Young. Keaton Wallace, who was called up from the G League, should play rotation minutes in a reserve role, but Krejci is the player managers in deep leagues should focus on.
