Is Trae Young playing tonight against the Milwaukee Bucks? Latest on the Hawks star’s availability (Mar. 30)

Trae Young is available to play after being listed as 'probable' against the Milwaukee Bucks for the Sunday night matchup at Fiserv Forum. The four-time All-Star was listed as day-to-day on the Hawks' injury report because of a right Achilles tendinitis issue.

Young has played in the last five games for the Hawks and will suit up for the road contest against Milwaukee.

The 26-year-old is having a great individual run this season, but the same cannot be said for his team. The Hawks are going through an injury plague, with most of their core members sidelined with injuries.

According to ESPN, Keaton Wallace Jr., Larry Nance Jr., Clint Capela, Jalen Johnson, and Kobe Bufkin are all ruled out from the Sunday night matchup. The Hawks are currently the eight-seed on the Eastern Conference standings with a 35-38 record.

They are in a heated playoff race with the Bulls, the Heat, and the Magic, with each team trying to secure as many wins as possible in this final stretch of games to move up the standings and confirm a playoff spot.

In the absence of his teammates, Young is almost single-handedly trying to keep his team in contention. The four-time All-Star is averaging 24.1 points, 3.1 rebounds and 11.4 assists per game. He is shooting 41.2% from the field and 33.6% from downtown.
