• Hawks' Trae Young: Double-doubles once again

  1D ago • By RotoWire

  Young accumulated 25 points (8-21 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 6-7 FT), five rebounds and 12 assists across 42 minutes during Friday's 123-115 loss to the Kings. Young has been one of the best playmakers in the early stages of the NBA season, and the star floor general has recorded 10 or more assists in all but one of his six outings. Young has been doing more than dish out assists, though, and he's also reached the 25-point mark four times in that stretch. This translates to Young being one of the best fantasy point guards in 2024-25, thanks to averages of 27.7 points and 11.7 dimes per game in six outings.

• Hawks' Trae Young: Game-high 35 points Wednesday

  4D ago • By RotoWire

  Young finished Wednesday's 133-120 loss to the Wizards with 35 points (12-28 FG, 4-13 3Pt, 7-7 FT), 15 assists, four rebounds and two steals over 40 minutes. It was a nice bounce-back effort from Young on Wednesday after shooting just 2-for-15 from the field during Monday's loss to Washington. He logged his fourth double-double of the 2024-25 regular season and led both teams in both scoring and assists. He's shooting just 30 percent from three-point range, but he's made up for it at the free-throw line, where he is shooting at a 90.6 percent clip. Young and the Hawks will travel back to Atlanta to host the Kings on Friday.

• Hawks' Trae Young: Struggles from field Monday

  6D ago • By RotoWire

  Young closed with 14 points (2-15 FG, 2-10 3Pt, 8-9 FT), eight rebounds, 13 assists, one block and one steal in 36 minutes during Monday's 121-119 loss to the Wizards. On the surface, the stat line looks good since Young handed out double-digit assists for the third time in four contests while ending just two rebounds shy of a triple-double. However, the shooting woes can't be overlooked, and the star floor general would've had an even worse scoring effort hadn't it been for his nine trips to the charity stripe. Young opened the season with back-to-back games reaching the 30-point mark, but he's been trending in the wrong direction over the last two contests.

• Hawks' Trae Young: Double-double streak stops Sunday

  6D ago • By RotoWire

  Young logged 24 points (7-14 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 8-8 FT), one rebound and eight assists over 37 minutes during Sunday's 128-104 loss to the Thunder. The fact that this 24-point, eight-assist performance was Young's worst outing of the season shows how hot he's been to start the campaign. The star floor general has back-to-back favorable matchups upcoming against the Wizards on Monday and Wednesday. He could be in line to extend his excellent start to the season, both in real life but also in fantasy, where he was one of the best guards over the first days of action.

  9D ago • By RotoWire

  Young closed with 38 points (11-24 FG, 5-14 3Pt, 11-13 FT), eight rebounds, 10 assists and four steals over 41 minutes during Friday's 125-120 win over the Hornets. Young stuffed the stat sheet Friday, posting game highs in points, assists and steals. However, he did turn the ball over seven times. The 26-year-old is off to a fantastic start to the 2024-25 campaign, averaging 34 points, 11 assists and 6.5 rebounds across the first two games. Though it's unclear if he'll retain this pace, Young looks to be making a push for his first All-NBA berth since 2021-22.
