Saddiq Bey - Paces Atlanta in scoring Saturday Bey totaled 23 points (8-14 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 5-5 FT), three rebounds and two assists in 35 minutes during Saturday's 114-102 loss to the Nets.
Impact Bey led the Hawks in scoring and was the only player who surpassed the 20-point mark for Atlanta, but his contributions were not enough to secure the victory. Bey has been relegated to a secondary role on offense in recent weeks, but this was the first time he reached the 20-point mark since Feb. 10. He has also surpassed the 15-point plateau in three of his five appearances following the All-Star break.

Clint Capela - Records double-double Saturday Capela finished Saturday's 114-102 loss to the Nets with 11 points (4-7 FG, 3-4 FT), 10 rebounds, two assists and one steal across 24 minutes.
Impact Capela hasn't received too many touches on offense of late, which is not surprising considering he's often sharing the court with Dejounte Murray, Jalen Johnson and Saddiq Bey, but the veteran big man made the most of his chances in this one. He scored in double digits -- and recorded a double-double -- for the first time since Feb. 3, and there's a chance this performance is exactly what he needs to stop the cold streak he was riding since returning from injury.

Dejounte Murray - Scores 20, hands out 11 dimes Murray closed with 20 points (8-19 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 2-4 FT), six rebounds, 11 assists, one block and two steals over 35 minutes during Saturday's 114-102 loss to the Nets.
Impact Murray didn't have his best shooting performance Saturday and needed 19 shots to score 20 points. However, the lack of efficiency will not hurt his fantasy upside, especially on games where he's putting up excellent all-around numbers such as this one. Murray has embraced a more significant responsibility in the playmaking department with Trae Young (finger) sidelined and has made the most of it, dishing out double-digit assists in three of his last four outings. He's also surpassed the 20-point mark three times in that stretch.

Wesley Matthews - Makes first appearance since Feb. 5 Matthews logged five points (2-2 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 0-1 FT), five rebounds and two blocks across 14 minutes Thursday in the Hawks' 124-97 loss to the Raptors.
Impact Matthews had missed the Hawks' final four games before the All-Star break due to an illness, but he was cleared to resume playing when Atlanta kicked off its second-half schedule last week. However, Matthews hadn't been included in head coach Quin Snyder's rotation for the first three games out of the All-Star break before he got some run Thursday. It's unclear if Snyder plans on keeping Matthews in the rotation moving forward, but even if he does, the 37-year-old likely won't see his playing time dramatically increase from the 14 minutes he received versus Toronto.

Kobe Bufkin - Scores 12 points off bench Thursday Bufkin produced 12 points (5-11 FG, 2-5 3Pt), three rebounds and three assists in 19 minutes during Thursday's 124-97 loss to the Nets.
Impact Bufkin hasn't been a regular part of the Hawks' rotation this season, but the promising floor general had to see minutes off the bench in this one due to the team's lack of depth in the backcourt. His numbers were decent, but the only real reason why he logged minutes was that it was a blowout loss, and this was a good chance to see how he performed at the NBA level following several above-average displays in the G League. Bufkin could stay with Atlanta for a few more days, but he could also return to College Park, as he's spent most of the season with the Skyhawks.

Jalen Johnson - Scores 14 points in loss Johnson racked up 14 points (5-12 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds and two blocks over 33 minutes during Thursday's 124-97 loss to the Nets.
Impact Johnson saw his double-double streak end Thursday, but that's not much of a surprise since the Hawks only mustered 97 points and looked badly outplayed by the Nets on both ends of the court. One bad game is not going to throw Johnson's impressive season into the trash, however, as the former first-round pick has progressed immensely over the last few months. Since the start of February, Johnson has been averaging 16.5 points, 9.9 rebounds, and 4.1 assists per game. To put things into perspective, those three figures would be his career-best marks if sustained for an entire campaign.
