Trae Young Ruled Out For Wednesday’s Game
3 years agoAtlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young (quad) has been deemed unavailable to play in Wednesday's preseason contest against Cleveland. Young is battling a right quad contusion, with the Hawks having little reason to thrust their star point guard into action without him at 100 percent this early in the year. Delon Wright will draw the start in place of Young after the veteran dropped six points to go along with five assists in Atlanta's preseason opener vs. the Heat. Wright averaged vastly better numbers as a starter last season, with his 11.7 points, 5.5 assists and 5.1 rebounds per contest average making him an appealing DFS option for those playing preseason hoops. Young's ailment shouldn't be viewed as a regular-season setback in the slightest.
