Atlanta Hawks star Trae Young started Game 6 against the Milwaukee Bucks on Saturday after missing Games 4 and 5 of the Eastern Conference finals because of a bone bruise in his right foot.

He finished the Hawks' 118-107 loss with 14 points on 4-of-17 shooting.

Young was dominating the postseason prior to suffering his injury in Game 3, averaging 29.8 points and 9.5 assists over 15 appearances.

The Hawks faced a shorthanded Bucks squad that was playing without Giannis Antetokounmpo for a second straight contest. The two-time MVP hyperextended his left knee in Game 4.
