On Saturday evening, the Atlanta Hawks will host the Cleveland Cavaliers at State Farm Arena in Georgia. 

For the game, the Hawks could be without their best player, as starting point guard Trae Young is on the injury report. 

Young missed the team's last game, so this would be his second straight out of the lineup (if he doesn't play). 

Via Underdog NBA: "Trae Young (illness) questionable Saturday."
