Drawing spot start Mathews is starting Monday's game against the Kings, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Impact Mathews is in line for his first start of the 2024-25 campaign after Jalen Johnson (lower leg) was ruled out 15 minutes prior to tipoff. Mathews is averaging 7.2 points, 1.0 rebounds and 1.6 assists over 18.4 minutes in his last five games off the bench, but it wouldn't be a surprise to see him reach the 20-minute threshold Monday.

Won't suit up Monday Johnson (lower leg) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Kings, Lauren L. Williams of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Impact Johnson was a late addition to the injury report and is dealing with left lateral lower leg inflammation. With the 22-year-old forward sidelined, Garrison Mathews, De'Andre Hunter and Larry Nance are candidates for an increased role Monday.

Out Monday Krejci has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Kings due to right adductor strain injury management, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Impact Krejci made his return from a nine-game absence Sunday, playing 21 minutes off the bench during a loss to Portland. As expected, he'll be sidelined for the second half of Atlanta's back-to-back set but should return to be available Wednesday in Golden State. However, with Atlanta getting close to full strength, it's unclear how many minutes will be available for Krejci moving forward.

NOVEMBER 18 • ROTOWIRE

Available Monday Bufkin (shoulder) isn't listed on the injury report for Monday's game against the Kings, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Impact Bufkin is cleared to make his season debut after missing the first month due to a dislocated right shoulder. The Hawks will be surprisingly healthy Monday, so it's unclear if Bufkin will actually see any playing time.

NOVEMBER 18 • ROTOWIRE

Good to go Monday Hunter (knee) isn't listed on the Hawks' injury report for Monday's game against the Kings, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Impact As expected, Hunter is good to go Monday after missing the first half of the back-to-back set for right knee injury management. On Friday, Hunter made his return from a 10-game absence due to a knee injury and scored 22 points (7-13 FG), in 21 minutes during a win over Washington.

NOVEMBER 18 • ROTOWIRE

Not listed on injury report Bogdanovic (hamstring) isn't listed on the Hawks' injury report for Monday's game against the Kings, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Impact Bogdanovic was recently sent to the G League as part of his rehab, and it appears everything went well, as the sharpshooter is cleared to make his first appearance since the season opener. Given the lengthy layoff and the unexpected stellar play from Dyson Daniels, Atlanta can likely afford to ease Bogdanovic back into his usual role. Bogdanovic averaged a career-high 30.4 minutes per game last year.

Plays just 20 minutes Capela provided eight points (4-9 FG, 0-2 FT), eight rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal in 20 minutes during Sunday's 114-110 loss to the Trail Blazers.

Impact Capela played 20 minutes compared to Onyeka Okongwu, and it doesn't help his case that he was severely outplayed as well. Despite holding onto the starting role, his minutes have suffered in recent games, as he's played 22 or fewer minutes in four of his last five outings.

NOVEMBER 18 • ROTOWIRE

Posts well-rounded line in return Krejci (adductor) tallied eight points (3-5 FG, 2-3 3Pt), three assists, two rebounds, one steal and one block in 21 minutes off the bench in Sunday's 114-110 loss to the Trail Bla...

Impact Making his return from a nine-game absence due to a right adductor strain, Krejci slotted back into the Atlanta rotation and finished second to only center Onyeka Okongwu in minutes among Hawks reserves. Though he produced well across the board during his time on the court, Krejci is likely to see his minutes trend downward from here. De'Andre Hunter (knee) sat out Sunday due to injury management but should be back in action Monday in Sacramento, while Kobe Bufkin (shoulder) and Bogdan Bogdanovic (hamstring) also appear poised to return from multi-game absences at some point during the upcoming week.

NOVEMBER 18 • ROTOWIRE

Double-doubles off bench Sunday Okongwu totaled 11 points (4-9 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 11 rebounds, three assists, two blocks and two steals over 28 minutes during Sunday's 114-110 loss to the Trail Blazers.

Impact It seems it'll only be a matter of time before Okongwu replaces Clint Capela in the starting lineup, but the former is outplaying the veteran even on a bench role. Okongwu logged 28 minutes compared to Capela's 20 in this contest, and he remains a steady source of points and rebounds even if he's not featuring in the first unit. The big man has posted back-to-back doubles and is averaging 10.8 points, 7.5 rebounds, 1.9 assists and a combined 1.8 steals-plus-blocks since the start of November.

NOVEMBER 18 • ROTOWIRE

Scores 25 points Sunday Johnson registered 25 points (10-14 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, four assists, one block and two steals over 37 minutes during Sunday's 114-110 loss to the Trail Blazers.

Impact Johnson was extremely efficient Sunday and missed just four of his 14 shots en route to leading the Hawks in scoring despite the defeat. Trae Young remains the go-to player for Atlanta, but Johnson continues to thrive and is surpassing the numbers he posted in his career-best campaign in 2023-24. He's scored at least 20 points in six of his nine appearances in November, a span where he's averaging 20.8 points, 9.4 rebounds and 6.1 assists per contest.

NOVEMBER 18 • ROTOWIRE

Comes close to double-double Young chipped in 29 points (8-16 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 8-9 FT), five rebounds and eight assists over 38 minutes during Sunday's 114-110 loss to the Trail Blazers.

Impact Young recorded nine double-doubles over his first 11 outings this season, but he hasn't accomplished that feat in his last two appearances. That said, he remains highly productive and one of the best guards in The Association, regardless of the fantasy format you're playing. The star floor general is averaging 21.1 points, 10.8 assists and 3.4 rebounds per game since the beginning of November despite shooting just 38 percent from the floor in that span.

Remains out Sunday Bufkin (shoulder) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Portland, Lauren L. Williams of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Impact Bufkin has yet to make his season debut for the Hawks while working his way back from a dislocated right shoulder he sustained during the preseason. The 21-year-old's next chance to suit up will come in the second leg of a back-to-back set Monday against the Kings.

NOVEMBER 17 • ROTOWIRE

Available Sunday Krejci (thigh) is available for Sunday's game against Portland, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Impact Krejci is cleared to make his first appearance since Oct. 28. He played at least 10 minutes in each of his first four appearances and will likely be limited even if he's part of the rotation Sunday.
