Trae Young Injury Update: Latest on Hawks superstar’s status against Chicago Bulls (April 1)

Despite the previous two wins by the Bulls, the upcoming contest against the Chicago team on Monday at the United Center will see Atlanta Hawks’ point guard Trae Young listed as out. This will mark the third time the Eastern Conference rivals face each other.

After a nail-biting win against the Minnesota Timberwolves, who currently hold the top seed in the Western Conference, the Chicago Bulls enter their upcoming game against the Atlanta Hawks with a strong sense of momentum.

Trae Young’s Road to Recovery: Latest Injury Update

Unfortunately, Trae Young will not be able to play in the Bulls’ game as he is currently recovering from a right-hand injury. The 6-foot-1 guard recently underwent a surgical procedure for this injury.

The Atlanta Hawks have been providing updates on Trae Young’s recovery progress to keep fans informed. As of a week ago, the team reported that Young’s rehabilitation has been showing significant improvement since his surgery.

The Hawks have yet to announce a definite timeline for Young’s return, with the regular season now entering its final two weeks.

Trae initiated small finger movement exercises this week as a component of his rehabilitation regimen.

The injury that sidelined Trae Young

On Feb. 23, Young sustained a torn ligament in his left pinky finger while playing against the Toronto Raptors. He underwent surgery to repair the injury just four days after the incident.

Despite experiencing discomfort, he continued to play and contributed 11 points on 2-of-6 shooting and seven assists during the game, making it difficult to determine the exact timing of his injury.
