The Atlanta Hawks’ tough season got even tougher on Friday when star Trae Young went down with another ankle injury.
The second-year guard exited Friday’s loss to the Milwaukee Bucks in the second quarter with an ankle sprain and will miss at least one game.
Young was driving to the hoop when made slight contact with guard George Hill and twisted his ankle trying to step back. He had to be helped off the court by teammates John Collins and Kevin Huerter and did not return to the game.
Young is not traveling with the team as they head north to play the Chicago Bulls on Saturday night.
