Trae Young

Young (Achilles) is starting Thursday's game against the Pacers, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Young has been a staple on the injury report as of late, but he's consistently been on the floor. Unfortunately for NBA fans, the elite PG matchup of Young and Tyrese Haliburton won't happen, as the latter has been ruled out due to a left hip injury.

Young has consistently shown up on the injury report as he's dealt with an Achilles injury for most of the season. The 26-year-old point guard is likely to be available once again given his probable listing. Fantasy managers can prepare as though Young will be taking the floor Thursday against the Pacers.

Young is probable for Thursday's game against the Pacers due to right Achilles tendinitis.

Young had a rough stretch as a scorer recently as he had scored less than 20 points in Atlanta's previous four games. He made up for it with plenty of assists, and while he didn't shoot a much higher percentage on Tuesday, he was able to get back on track as a scorer. Trae has dished out at least 12 dimes in five of the Hawks' last six games, though they have only won two of those games. Atlanta will wrap up the week by hosting Indiana twice, with the first of those games coming on Thursday.
