Report: Trae Young’s ankle injury may not be serious

Trae Young

Trae Young left Tuesday night’s Atlanta Hawks game at the Miami Heat with an ankle injury, but one report says the injury may not be that serious.

ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported that X-rays on Young’s right ankle were negative and there is optimism it’s not a serious injury.

Here’s a look at the play where he got hurt. Young rolled his ankle as he landed after going up with the ball in the paint:

Young had five points in 11 minutes before exiting. The 21-year-old out of Oklahoma was the No. 5 pick in the draft last year and a player the Hawks believed in as a cornerstone — preferring him to Luka Doncic. He averaged 34 points per game in his first three games of the season and has been off to a hot start for the 2-1 Hawks.
