Trae Young (finger) could return Wednesday for Hawks

Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young (finger surgery) could return on Wednesday against the Charlotte Hornets, reports Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN.

What It Means:

Young has been sidelined since undergoing surgery to repair a torn ligament in a finger on February 25. His return would result in fewer opportunities for Dejounte Murray, Vit Krejci, Garrison Mathews, and Kobe Bufkin.

Murray is averaging 48.6 FanDuel points per game without Young and 37.2 FanDuel points when both players are active. Per numberFire's NBA Heat Map, the Hawks' implied total (116.75) is second-best out of 12 teams on the Main slate today.
