The Hawks might not be as lucky tonight with Young currently listed as questionable due to a right heel contusion ahead of tonight's game. In the games he has played against the Bulls, he has averaged 24.1 points, 10.4 assists, and 3.6 rebounds on 42/31/87 shooting splits. Young played in the team's latest game against the Minnesota Timberwolves but did not play against the Grizzlies on Saturday.

The Chicago Bulls have their own share of injuries to deal with tonight, so they won't have an immediate advantage of Young doesn't play. Regardless, their mindset can't change whether or not Trae Young is on the court. Chicago is on a two-game losing streak and has to play with the intention of snapping it.

The Chicago Bulls and Atlanta Hawks will face off tonight at 7:30 p.m. EST.
