However, he'd upgrade his participation to a full practice on Friday […]

Jalen Johnson Remains Out On Saturday
Atlanta Hawks forward Jalen Johnson (shoulder) won't play on Saturday against the Rockets. Initially, his right shoulder inflammation wasn't too concerning for fantasy managers.

Trae Young Probable Versus Houston
Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (Achilles) is expected to suit up on Saturday against Houston. The right Achilles Tendinitis is nothing new, so he should be out there barring a setback.
