Wizards' Trae Young: Managing quad, back injuries
Rotowire
The Wizards announced Saturday that Young aggravated a right quadriceps injury in Monday's 125-117 loss to the Warriors and is also dealing with lower back irritation after recently undergoing imaging.
Young sustained a quad contusion in the third quarter of Monday's contest and will be sidelined for a third straight game Sunday. Though the Wizards indicated that Young won't need surgery for either of the quad or back injuries, he lacks a clear timeline to resume playing, as the team is expected to proceed conservatively with him. While Young is sidelined, Bub Carrington should continue to start at point guard, and two-way player Sharife Cooper should handle a heightened role in the rotation.

Wizards' Trae Young: Not playing Sunday
Rotowire
Young (quadriceps/back) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Knicks.
Young is rehabbing from both a right quad contusion and lower-back injury. His next chance to play is Wednesday against the Jazz, but the Wizards have not communicated a clear timeline of return for the veteran point guard. Bub Carrington will continue to start at point guard for as long as Young is out of action.

Wizards' Trae Young: Ruled out for Saturday
Rotowire
Young (quadriceps) is out for Saturday's game against the Thunder.
Young will be sidelined for a third straight contest. At this point, it remains unclear if he will be able to return for the second leg of this back-to-back set Sunday against the Knicks. In the games that Young does play, he'll likely continue to see modest workloads.

Wizards' Trae Young: Ruled out for Thursday
Rotowire
Young (quad) won't play Thursday versus the Pistons.
This will be Young's second straight game on the sidelines, and with Saturday's game versus the Thunder being the first of a back-to-back, it seems likely that Young will miss at least one more game. Bub Carrington should continue to start while Young is out, and there will be more minutes available for Jaden Hardy.

Wizards' Trae Young: Won't play Tuesday
Rotowire
Young (quadriceps) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Pistons.
Young will be sidelined for the second half of Washington's back-to-back set after leaving Monday's loss to the Warriors early following a collision with Will Richard. Young was able to leave under his own power, but the Wizards are expected to be extremely cautious with their new point guard the rest of the way. His next chance to suit up will come Thursday in a rematch against Detroit.

Wizards' Trae Young: Exits early Monday
Rotowire
Young (quadriceps) has been ruled out for the remainder of Monday's game against the Warriors. He'll close with 21 points (7-10 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 4-5 FT), five assists, two rebounds, one steal and one block across 21 minutes.
After a collision with Will Richard, Young hobbled off to the locker room at the 7:53 mark of the third quarter. The guard was able to walk off under his own power but will not return to Monday's contest due to a right quad contusion. His next chance to play will come Tuesday against the Pistons, though it's unlikely the 27-year-old suits up for the second half of the back-to-back.

Wizards' Trae Young: Fades injury report
Rotowire
Young (undisclosed) is off the injury report ahead of Monday's game against the Warriors.
Young exited Saturday's game in the third quarter and did not return due to undisclosed reasons, but he appears set to play in Monday's contest. In four appearances since joining the Wizards, Young is averaging 13.8 points, 6.5 assists and 3.3 rebounds in 20.5 minutes per contest.

Wizards' Trae Young: Doesn't return Saturday
Rotowire
Young (undisclosed) exited Saturday's 111-100 loss to the Celtics in the third quarter and did not return. He finished with 11 points (5-10 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six assists and four rebounds in 24 minutes.
It's unclear exactly why Young exited to the locker room with 3:10 remaining in the third quarter, though it's possible he reached his minutes limit. The Wizards have a back-to-back set Monday and Tuesday against the Warriors and Pistons, respectively, so the star point guard will likely sit out at least one of those games.

Wizards' Trae Young: Exits to locker room Saturday
Rotowire
Young (undisclosed) exited to the locker room in the third quarter of Saturday's game against the Celtics, Gary Washburn of The Boston Globe reports.
Young checked out of Saturday's contest with 3:10 remaining in the third and immediately went back to the locker room. It's unclear why the star guard headed to the back, though he can be considered questionable to return until more information comes to light. He has already logged 24 minutes Saturday -- his highest mark with Washington thus far -- so it wouldn't be shocking if he doesn't return.

Wizards' Trae Young: Efficient shooting numbers
Rotowire
Young finished Thursday's 136-131 overtime loss to the Magic with 15 points (5-7 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds and six assists in 21 minutes.
Young has played just three games with the Wizards this season, and while his numbers remain subpar for his standards, at least he was efficient in this OT loss. Perhaps the most encouraging tidbit out of this game is the fact that he played more than 20 minutes for the first time since joining Washington. However, he'll likely remain limited down the stretch, with the Wizards having nothing to play for except lottery odds.

Wizards' Trae Young: Good to go Thursday
Rotowire
Young (knee) is good to go for Thursday's game against the Magic.
After getting a maintenance day Tuesday against the Heat, Young will be back in action Thursday. He's averaging just 18.5 minutes across two appearances for the Wizards thus far, so his upside is limited.

Wizards' Trae Young: Sitting out Tuesday
Rotowire
Young (knee) won't play Tuesday against the Heat.
After playing an average of 18.5 minutes over his first two appearances for Washington, Young will get a maintenance day related to his right knee. Presumably, he'll be back in action Thursday against Orlando. Bub Carrington and Tre Johnson will likely take on more responsibility out of the backcourt with Young sitting out Tuesday.

Wizards' Trae Young: Limited impact in Wizards debut
Rotowire
Young posted 12 points (4-9 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-6 FT), two rebounds, six assists and two steals across 19 minutes during Thursday's 122-112 loss to Utah.
Young played with the Wizards for the first time in his career, and while his stat line could've been better had he played more, he was limited to a mere 19 minutes. Young struggled with his shot from three-point range, but some rust was expected given this was his first game since Dec. 27 and only his 11th game in the current campaign. Young is expected to remain in the starting lineup for upcoming games, though he's likely to continue playing under a minutes restriction.

The stage is officially set for the star guard to make his much-awaited Wizards debut Thursday. Young has been out since Dec. 27 with a right knee MCL sprain and a right quadriceps contusion, and he's slated for a restriction of 17-to-20 minutes, per Josh Robbins of The Athletic. Young's return is likely to lead to Bub Carrington heading to the bench Thursday.

Wizards' Trae Young: Set to make team debut Thursday
Rotowire
Young (knee/quadriceps) will make his Wizards debut in Thursday's game against the Jazz, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
Though Young will remain out for Monday's tilt against the Rockets and Tuesday's matchup against the Magic, he's on track to make his highly-anticipated team debut later this week. Prior to being traded to the Wizards, Young made his final appearance with the Hawks on Dec. 27 before being shut down due to a right knee MCL sprain and a right quadriceps contusion. Because Young has been out for a lengthy period of time, head coach Brian Keefe confirmed that the 27-year-old would have a restriction of between 17-to-20 minutes in his Wizards debut, per Josh Robbins of The Athletic. Young's return will likely result in Bub Carrington moving to the bench Thursday.
Young (knee/quadriceps) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Rockets.
Young continues to rehab from right knee and quadriceps injuries and is expected to be re-evaluated in the near future. The star point guard can be considered doubtful for future contests until Washington offers an update on his progress. His next opportunity to suit up will come Tuesday versus Orlando.
