Although he is steadily progressing, Wizards general manager Will Dawkins revealed that Young is slowly getting back on the court and participating in non-contact basketball activities.
For now, the key date in the 27-year-old star's recovery process is set for after the All-Star break, when the Wizards plan to reassess his availability for the remainder of the season.
Young has played only 10 games this season due to injuries, but he has still put up strong numbers when on the floor, averaging 19.3 points and 8.9 assists per game.
Young is on a five-year, $215 million max contract with a $49 million player option for next season, making his long-term health a critical factor for the Wizards moving forward.
