Atlanta Hawks star Trae Young was ruled out for Game 5 of the series against the Milwaukee Bucks, ESPN said.
Young will continue to rehab in hopes of returning to the Hawks’ starting team in Game 6, but nothing is confirmed yet.
The Atlanta guard was already absent in the fourth game after suffering a bruise on his foot after stepping on a referee.

The point guard, who is playing in his first postseason, has produced superb performances, such as the 48 points scored in the first game against the Bucks or the 39 against the Philadelphia 76ers in the fifth game of the conference semifinals.
