The Atlanta Hawks have been waiting for a few days to find out the diagnosis of Trae Young’s right knee injury that he suffered against the Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday. After an MRI, it has been reported that Young sustained a sprained MCL in his right knee, and will be re-evaluated in four weeks, according to ESPN’s Shams Charania.
Young will most likely be out for the month of November, and could possibly miss more time depending on how long it takes for him to recover. The Hawks may have caught a break with the diagnosis, as the injury wasn’t as bad as it looked.
For now, the Hawks will have to rely on their guard depth while Young is out. Dyson Daniels, Nickeil Alexander-Walker, Keaton Wallace, and Luke Kennard will take turns handling the ball, and Jalen Johnson will also have more opportunities to control the offense.
Through five games this season, Young has averaged 17.8 points and 7.8 assists per game.
