After taking a hard hit to the head and neck area at the end of the first half of Saturday night’s loss to the Chicago Bulls and missing the rest of the game, Thaddeus Young seems to be doing well.

It’s certainly a positive that the team doesn’t play again until Wednesday evening in Brooklyn, giving Young a few days to recover from the collision. According to the St. Paul Pioneer Press’ Andy Greder, he had no concussion symptoms, either, which was surely the main concern:

Wednesday’s game against the Nets is one that the Wolves could certainly win, especially with the extra days of rest. The Nets host the Oklahoma City Thunder on Monday night. To this point, Brooklyn was blown out in Boston by the Celtics and beat the Pistons rather easily in Detroit on Saturday.

The Nets won’t be very good this year, but playing on the road against a veteran team is never easy, obviously. As long as Young is able to play, and it looks like he will, this game would be similar to Saturday night’s against the Bulls: it’s probably a tossup, but it would qualify as a good, impressive win from Flip Saunders’ young squad.

The Wolves fill travel from New York to Orlando for a game against the Magic on Friday night, followed by a tough back-to-back in South Beach against the Miami Heat on Saturday evening.

We’ll keep an eye on any potential news surrounding Young’s status early in the week, and we’ll have any other breaking news from around the league here at DWW as well.

Enjoy the rest of your Sunday.
