Trae Young is healthy and running the Wizards offense, but the points are not there yet
Trae Young is off the injury report after a right quadriceps issue kept him day-to-day in early September. Washington is 2-2 in his four games this season, and he is averaging well under last season's 17.9 points while still piling up assists. His next scheduled game is not yet known.

Young was cleared on October 1 and has played all four Wizards games. He scored 15 in 17.4 minutes in the opening win over the Knicks, then had 2 points and 8 assists in the win over Detroit. The two losses since have been rougher: 11 points and 11 assists against Brooklyn with a minus-16, then 7 points, 4 rebounds and 7 assists against New Orleans at minus-8. His minutes have sat between 17 and 28 a night, so the role looks like a shorter shift than a full-time starter's load.
