John Collins - Status remains unclear Hawks head coach Nate McMillan said Tuesday that Collins (finger/foot) has been playing 4-on-4, but the team still isn't sure what his status will be for Wednesday's play-in matchu...
Impact On Monday, Collins said he's "still not sure" if he'll be available, and McMillan said Tuesday that "we'll see" when it comes to him possibly playing Wednesday. Neither of these statements offer any clarity on the situation, but they do suggest that the forward is progressing well and could return to action sooner rather than later. Even if he is ruled available, Collins would likely be limited, as he's played in just four contests since Feb. 11.

John Collins - Status remains clouded The Hawks have not issued an update on Collins' (finger, foot) status ahead of Wednesday's play-in matchup against the Hornets, but the forward told Chris Kirchner of The Athletic...
Impact While on the surface this seems like a fairly positive update from Collins, who missed the final 16 games of the regular season, Kirschner notes that the big man is yet to progress beyond light shooting and light running. Collins went through a pregame workout prior to Sunday's game against the Rockets, but he still had a splint and a bandage on his sprained right middle finger. Collins appeared to be moving well on his strained right foot, but given that he hasn't done any full-contact work in more than a month, his chances to return Wednesday night appear relatively slim. Look for a more definitive update from the Hawks on Tuesday, but for now Collins should be considered doubtful.

Clint Capela - Logs double-double in season finale Capela finished with 18 points (7-10 FG, 4-4 FT), 13 rebounds, two blocks and one steal across 23 minutes during Sunday's 130-114 win over the Rockets.
Impact Capela has now recorded double-doubles in three of his past four games and will find himself in a favorable matchup against the Hornets, who have had trouble defending the interior all season. Capela's numbers are trending in the right direction, so he could be in for a big Wednesday night.
APRIL 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Danilo Gallinari - Posts 26 points in finale Gallinari amassed 26 points (9-14 FG, 6-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one block across 32 minutes during Sunday's 130-114 victory over the Rockets.
Impact Gallinari has played exceptionally well amid John Collins' (finger) absence, although there have been some scoring hiccups along the way. If Collins is able to return for the play-in game, Gallinari would face a regression in production and retreat back to the bench.
APRIL 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
De'Andre Hunter - Pours in 22 points Hunter supplied 22 points (7-13 FG, 4-4 3Pt, 4-5 FT) and two rebounds over 33 minutes during Sunday's 130-114 win over the Rockets.
Impact Hunter bounced back nicely after a poor showing against the Heat in Friday's loss. The Hawks will continue to utilize Hunter and Danilo Gallinari extensively amid John Collins' (finger) absence. Collins is questionable, at best, to return within the next couple of weeks, and Hunter's workload will be negatively impacted if Collins is able to return at any point going forward.
APRIL 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Trae Young - Fills stat sheet in season finale Young chipped in 28 points (10-20 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds and 11 assists across 34 minutes during Sunday's 130-114 win over the Rockets.
Impact Young and the rest of the starters played, but the Hawks stayed put in ninth position in the East. Young has been on an insane run of production recently, averaging 32.3 points, 10.3 assists and 3.3 rebounds over the past seven games, and is getting hot a the right time as the Hawks enter the play-in game against the Hornets.
