ATLANTA HAWKS NEWS

Danilo Gallinari - Joins starting five Gallinari will start at power forward in Sunday's game at Boston, Brad Rowland of PeachtreeHoops.com reports.

Impact The veteran forward will make his second start of the season with John Collins (foot) sidelined through the All-Star break. Gallinari has averaged 11.0 points, 5.6 rebounds and 1.8 assists in 23.2 minutes over his past five games, but he should have an increased role while Collins is unavailable.

Delon Wright - Cleared for Sunday Wright (hip) will be available for Sunday's game against the Celtics, Brad Rowland of PeachtreeHoops.com reports.

Impact Atlanta had listed Wright as probable for the contest due to a left hip flexor, so he never appeared in much danger of sitting out Sunday. With Trae Young (hip) also available to play after being listed as probable to begin the day, Wright should reprise his normal role as the Hawks' backup point guard.

Trae Young - Good to go Sunday Young (hip) is available for Sunday's game at Boston, Brad Rowland of PeachtreeHoops.com reports.

Impact Young was considered probable for Sunday's contest, so it's not much of a surprise he'll play through the hip injury. The 23-year-old has averaged 26.8 points, 2.6 rebounds and 10.2 assists in 34.6 minutes while shooting 50.5 percent from the field across the past five games.

Jalen Johnson - Returns to NBA team The Hawks recalled Johnson (lower body) from the G League's College Park Skyhawks on Saturday.

Impact Johnson's missed the Skyhawks' most recent game Thursday due to a lower-body injury, but he doesn't appear on Atlanta's injury report ahead of Sunday's game in Boston. The rookie's absence from the report implies that he'll be good to go for the contest, and he could even find himself in head coach Nate McMillan's rotation with starting power forward John Collins (foot) ruled out through the All-Star break.

John Collins - Out through All-Star break Collins was diagnosed Saturday with a strained right foot following an MRI and will be sidelined through the All-Star break, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Impact The injury will keep Collins out for at least the next three games, and it's not immediately clear if he should be expected to return right when Atlanta begins its second-half schedule. In his absence, more minutes should be available for Danilo Gallinari and Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot, among other forwards.

Lou Williams - Off injury report Williams (hamstring) is off the injury report for Sunday's matchup against the Celtics, Brad Rowland of PeachtreeHoops.com reports.

Delon Wright - Probable Sunday Wright (hip) is probable for Sunday's matchup against the Celtics, Brad Rowland of PeachtreeHoops.com reports.

Impact Wright was previously dealing with an ankle injury, but a hip issue has flared up that's apparently more of an issue. Still, it's not expected to affect his availability Sunday.

FEBRUARY 12, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Trae Young - Considered probable Sunday Young is probable for Sunday's game against the Celtics with right hip discomfort, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.

Impact Although Young is dealing with a hip issue, it appears as though he'll be able to play through the injury. He's posted double-doubles in each of his last four appearances and has averaged 22.8 points, 11.5 assists and 3.3 rebounds in 34.3 minutes per game during that time.

John Collins - Ruled out Sunday Collins (heel) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Boston, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.

Impact Collins was absent from practice Saturday after exiting Friday's game against the Spurs with right heel pain. Danilo Gallinari and Kevin Knox should see increased roles Sunday.

FEBRUARY 12, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Lou Williams - Doesn't play Friday Williams (hamstring) didn't appear in Friday's game against the Spurs, Brad Rowland of PeachtreeHoops.com reports.

Impact Williams was active for Friday's matchup, but coach Nate McMillan said after the game that the team elected to give the 35-year-old another night off since he was still bothered by his hamstring injury. It's not yet clear whether he'll play Sunday against Boston.

FEBRUARY 12, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Delon Wright - Absent from Saturday's practice Wright (ankle) didn't participate in practice Saturday, Kevin Chouinard of the Hawks' official site reports.

Impact Wright was unable to finish Friday's game against the Spurs after tweaking his ankle, and he was unavailable for practice a day later. His status for Sunday's game against Boston isn't yet clear, but Bogdan Bogdanovic and Lou Williams (hamstring) could see increased run if Wright is held out.

Impact Collins was removed from Friday's game against San Antonio due to right heel pain. His status for Sunday's matchup against the Celtics isn't yet clear, but his absence from practice isn't encouraging. If the 24-year-old is unable to suit up, Danilo Gallinari and Kevin Knox should see increased work.

Hawks come out 'flat' in 136-121 loss to Spurs ATLANTA — With uninspired play, the Hawks fell to the Spurs, 136-121, Friday at State Farm Arena.

FEBRUARY 12, 2022 • KANSASCITY.COM

De'Andre Hunter - Unproductive in heavy loss Friday Hunter closed with 10 points (5-11 FG, 0-4 3Pt) and two rebounds over 26 minutes during Friday's 136-121 loss to the Spurs.

Impact Hunter failed to deliver again Friday, continuing what has been a sub-par stretch of games. Over the past two weeks, Hunter has fallen off a cliff in terms of production, averaging just 13.4 points per game on 43 percent shooting. On the surface, scoring like this is palatable, but given the fact he is contributing 0.3 combined blocks and steals over the same period, it's easy to see why he's presenting as a drop candidate in most competitive leagues.

FEBRUARY 12, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Bogdan Bogdanovic - Drops season-high 23 points Friday Bogdanovic finished Friday's 136-121 loss to San Antonio with 23 points (8-14 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, four assists and two steals in 30 minutes.

Impact Bogdanovic put together arguably his best performance of the season, giving Hawks fans a positive on what was an otherwise sour evening. Since returning from his recent knee injury, Bogdanovic has now scored in double digits in eight of the past nine games. He's rounding into some nice form, contributing on both ends of the floor as the Hawks look to push into the playoff picture. Having been in and out of lineups all season, there's a chance he has flown under the radar in a handful of leagues. If he is available, now feels like a good time to run and grab him.

Clint Capela - Double-doubles in Friday's loss Capela chipped in 13 points (6-6 FG, 1-2 FT), 11 rebounds and one block across 21 minutes during Friday's 136-121 loss to San Antonio.

Impact Capela recorded his first double-double since early January, a stat that reveals where his game is at right now. His playing time has been drastically reduced, likely as a result of his ongoing injury concerns. While he isn't dealing with a specific injury, the Hawks are seemingly trying to manage him through to ensure he is available for the postseason, should they still be in contention. The limited minutes do put a cap on his fantasy upside, but he still warrants a roster spot due to his ability to rack up boards and blocks while scoring efficiently from the floor.

John Collins - Won't return Friday Collins has been ruled out for the remainder of Friday's game against the Spurs due to right heel pain, Sarah K. Spencer of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Impact Collins dealt with a heel injury early in the week but was able to play through the issue. He started Friday's matchup and logged four points (2-8 FG, 0-3 3Pt), three rebounds and an assist in 21 minutes prior to being ruled out midway through the fourth quarter. It's not yet clear whether he'll be able to play Sunday against Boston.
