Throughout the past five games, Young has been listed as questionable on the injury report and then ruled out, and other times he's been straight up ruled out. The good news is that he's been seen doing some workouts during pregame, which could lead some to believe that he is progressing, or close to making a return.

Coming into the season, there were already questions about Young's future with the team after he wasn't offered a contract extension. At the same time, Young had let it be known that he was committed to the team for this season, regardless of the contract disparity.
Fast forward to now, and Young has only played a handful of games with the Hawks, and they have a 2-8 record with him. When he hasn't played this season, the Hawks are 15-13, and it's obvious that they are preparing for a future without Young controllling their offense.
As the trade deadline is a month away, it will be interesting to see if Young is moved, and if so, where will he be heading.
