Young (knee) will not play Friday against Cleveland and is doubtful to play Sunday against the Lakers, Andy Vasquez of The Record reports.

Analysis:

Young hyperextended his knee Wednesday day and had to be helped off the court. While it's nothing that will keep him out long-term, he could miss a handful of games as the Nets battle for a playoff spot in the East. In his absence Bojan Bogdanovic figures to pick up some extra minutes.
