Impact Matthews is a fringe rotation player for the Hawks, so his absence won't have many fantasy implications.

Out against Pacers Matthews (hamstring) won't play against the Pacers on Sunday, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
Questionable to play Sunday Capela is questionable to play Sunday against the Pacers due to rest, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
Impact The Hawks know they'll be facing the Bulls in the first round of the Play-In Tournament, and it seems they're not willing to risk Capela in the final game of the regular season in order to have him fresh for what should be a battle against Nikola Vucevic. Capela has recorded four double-doubles over his last seven appearances, a span in which he's averaging 12.1 points and 11.4 rebounds per contest.

Records double-double Friday Capela accumulated 13 points (6-8 FG, 1-2 FT), 11 rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal in 26 minutes during Friday's 109-106 loss to the Timberwolves.
Impact Capela had the daunting task of dealing with Rudy Gobert on both ends of the court, and while his final stat line was not eye-popping, he was efficient en route to yet another double-double, as he missed just two shots from the field. Capela has recorded four double-doubles over his last seven appearances, a span in which he's averaging 12.1 points and 11.4 rebounds per contest.

Puts up 17 points Friday Bogdanovic recorded 17 points (5-10 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 5-5 FT), two rebounds and two assists across 29 minutes during Friday's 109-106 loss to the Timberwolves.
Impact Bogdanovic's fantasy upside will always be tied to his scoring prowess and his shooting ability, and on that note, he continues to make his presence felt, scoring at least 15 points in four of his last five appearances. Bogdanovic has averaged 19.0 points while shooting 45.5 percent from the field and 36 percent from three over his last 10 outings.

Hands out seven assists in loss Young had 19 points (6-12 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 4-6 FT), two rebounds, seven assists and one steal in 27 minutes during Friday's 109-106 loss to the Timberwolves.
Impact Young is simply getting enough reps to be ready for the Play-In Tournament, and while the star floor general continues to look a bit rusty, he's getting the minutes he needs. He's racked up 33 points, 18 assists, six rebounds and two steals in his two appearances since returning, though it's unclear whether he'll be available for the season finale against the Pacers on Sunday given the Hawks already clinched a Play-In berth.

Nets three points in return Griffin (ankle) scored three points (1-3 FG, 1-1 3Pt) and added four rebounds and one assist across 18 minutes in Friday's 109-106 loss to the Timberwolves.
Impact Griffin made his first appearance for Atlanta since the All-Star break and his first at any level since March 5, when he suited up for the G League's College Park Skyhawks. The second-year wing missed over five weeks with a right ankle sprain, but he was able to make it back for the Hawks' penultimate game of the regular season. With the Hawks announcing Thursday that Jalen Johnson will miss at least three weeks with a Grade 2 ankle sprain, Griffin could retain a spot in the rotation heading into Sunday's game at Indiana, as well as for the duration of the Hawks' run in the Eastern Conference Play-In Tournament.

Questionable for Friday Capela (rest) is questionable for Friday's game against the Timberwolves, Lauren L. Williams of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
Impact With only two games left in the regular season, a maintenance day is on the table for Capela. If Atlanta holds their starting center out, Bruno Fernando could see a lot of run against the Timberwolves and would be on the streaming radar.

Won't play Friday Lundy (ankle) is out for Friday's game against the Timberwolves, Lauren L. Williams of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
Impact Lundy continues to deal with an ankle injury, but he's not a big part of the rotation, and his absence won't affect many fantasy decisions. This will be his fifth consecutive absence, and it remains to be seen if he'll play in the regular-season finale against the Pacers on Sunday.

Won't play vs. Minnesota Matthews (hamstring) is out for Friday's game against the Timberwolves, Lauren L. Williams of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
Impact Matthews will miss a second straight game, but his absence won't affect many fantasy lineups since he's not a big part of the rotation. In fact, he's averaged just 12.8 minutes per game off the bench over his last 10 appearances.

Deemed questionable for Friday Griffin (ankle) is questionable for Friday's game against Minnesota, Lauren L. Williams of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
Impact Griffin hasn't played since he suited up for the G League's College Park Skyhawks in early March, but it's encouraging to see him questionable for Friday's matchup. Even if he's cleared to return for the penultimate game of the regular season, it seems unlikely that he'll see much playing time.

Questionable to play Friday Murray (quadriceps) is questionable to play Friday against the Timberwolves, Lauren L. Williams of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
Impact Murray missed Wednesday's loss to the Hornets due to a right quadriceps contusion, but the questionable tag suggests the Hawks might be thinking about playing him with only two games left in the regular season just so he can maintain the rhythm ahead of the Play-In Tournament. Murray has averaged 20.0 points, 9.2 assists and 6.4 rebounds per game in five April contests.

Not on injury report Hunter (rest) isn't on the injury report for Friday's game against Minnesota, Lauren L. Williams of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
Impact Hunter sat out Wednesday's game against the Hornets due to rest purposes, but he'll be back on the court following a one-game absence. Over five appearances this month, he's averaged 17.6 points, 5.6 rebounds and 3.2 assists in 36.2 minutes per game.
