NBA war: Tony Ressler organising serious party for challenge as the most dangerous hawk star Roar for huge return after….
Star guard Trae Young of the Atlanta Hawks is getting closer to recovering from the surgery he had done on his left pinkie last month.
After being reexamined on Monday, Young will now move on to the next phase of his recovery. The Hawks say that Young will begin working on minor finger motions this week.
On February 23, during a game against the Toronto Raptors, Young tore a ligament in his finger. Four days later, he had surgery.
There remains no timetable for the return of the three-time All-Star. The Hawks are 8-7 without him entering Wednesday’s home game against the Portland Trail Blazers.
Young, 25, averages a team-best 26.4 points and 10.8 assists in 51 games (all starts) this season.
Overall, Young is contributing 25.6 points and 9.5 assists in 404 career games (all starts) since being selected with the fifth overall pick of the 2018 NBA Draft.
