Young racked up 12 points (4-12 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, 11 assists and two steals over 30 minutes during Wednesday's 120-97 loss to the Warriors. Young continues to deliver outstanding numbers as one of the best playmakers in the league, and he's averaging a robust 11.6 assists per contest. However, his scoring numbers are trending in the wrong direction, and he's failed to reach the 20-point mark in three of his last four outings. Fantasy managers shouldn't be overly concerned about a mini-slump for the star floor general, and he should remain one of the best players for the Hawks in every single game as long as he stays healthy.

Young accumulated seven points (1-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 5-5 FT), three rebounds, 19 assists and two steals over 36 minutes during Monday's 109-108 victory over Sacramento. Young had a rough shooting performance Monday, and as soon as he realized his shot wasn't falling, he decided to create for others, resulting in an impressive playmaking performance. Aside from this haul being a season-high mark, Young has recorded double-digit dimes in 10 of his 14 games and is averaging 11.6 assists per game, the second-best mark in the league.

Young chipped in 29 points (8-16 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 8-9 FT), five rebounds and eight assists over 38 minutes during Sunday's 114-110 loss to the Trail Blazers. Young recorded nine double-doubles over his first 11 outings this season, but he hasn't accomplished that feat in his last two appearances. That said, he remains highly productive and one of the best guards in The Association. The star floor general is averaging 21.1 points, 10.8 assists and 3.4 rebounds per game since the beginning of November despite shooting just 38 percent from the floor in that span.

Young (Achilles) isn't on the injury report for Friday's game versus the Wizards. Young will return to action Friday after missing Atlanta's previous contest due to right Achilles tendinitis. The star guard should reclaim his starting job from Keaton Wallace. Across his last 10 appearances, Young is averaging 23.3 points, 11.5 assists, 4.1 rebounds and 1.3 steals in 36.4 minutes.

Young (Achilles) participated in Thursday's practice, Kevin Chouinard of the Hawks' official site reports. Young missed Atlanta's previous outing due to right Achilles tendinitis. However, the star guard's participation in practice is a good sign of his availability for Friday's matchup with Washington.
