The Atlanta Hawks are listing All-Star point guard Trae Young as questionable to face the Brooklyn Nets on Friday.

The Hawks say Young is dealing with flu-like symptoms:

The Hawks have the worst record in the Eastern Conference. They are 17-43 on the season.

Young has appeared in 54 games for the Hawks this season. He's averaging 30.1 points, 4.4 rebounds and 9.2 assists while shooting 44.3 percent from the field, 36.9 percent from beyond the arc and 85.9 percent from the free-throw line.

The Hawks will once again miss the playoffs this season. Atlanta is still waiting for center Clint Capela to make his Hawks debut. The big man is recovering from a heel injury he was dealing with the Houston Rockets.

Young is already one of the best point guards in the NBA despite being in his second year in the league. He's putting up 23.5 points, 4.0 rebounds and 8.5 assists in his first two seasons in the NBA.
