DE'ANDRE HUNTER NEWS

Questionable vs. Kings Hunter is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Kings due to low back discomfort, Sarah K. Spencer of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Impact Hunter has played well since his return to the starting lineup Jan. 14, turning in averages of 17.2 points, 4.8 rebounds, 1.8 steals and 1.8 combined blocks-plus-steals. Earlier Tuesday, head coach Nate McMillan told Spencer that Hunter was able to go through the Hawks' practice, even though he was still experiencing some soreness. Assuming he doesn't feel too much worse for the wear following Wednesday's morning shootaround, Hunter should be cleared ahead of the game's 7:30 p.m. ET tipoff.

Double-doubles in win Hunter produced 13 points (5-11 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists and one steal in 35 minutes during Friday's 110-108 victory over the Heat.

Impact Hunter grabbed a team-high 10 boards en route to his first double-double of the season. Over his last six games, the 2019 first-round pick has averaged 16.3 points, 4.7 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 1.0 blocks in 31.3 minutes. His current role is obviously extremely advantageous for fantasy managers, but it remains to be seen how the impending returns of Bogdan Bogdanovic (knee) and Danilo Gallinari (Achilles) will impact his production.

Scores 22 against Minnesota Hunter scored 22 points (9-16 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT) while adding five rebounds, an assist and a steal in 34 minutes during Wednesday's 134-122 win over the Timberwolves.

Impact The third-year forward continues to produce, dropping at least 20 points for the third time in four games since rejoining the starting lineup. Hunter missed nearly two months due to a wrist injury, but if he can regain last year's form or even take another step forward, it could help the Hawks shake themselves out of their funk.

Taps into new volume Hunter supplied 20 points (6-17 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 6-6 FT), nine rebounds, two assists and one block over 35 minutes during Monday's 121-114 win over the Bucks.

Impact Hunter attempted a season-high 17 shots in the win, falling one rebound shy of his first double-double of the campaign. He's appeared in only 15 games this season, but Hunter is shooting an excellent 42.3 percent on 3.7 threes per game. Managers with roster flexibility should consider him for a spot across most formats.

Scores 20 points with three blocks Hunter racked up 20 points (7-10 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), two assists and three blocks across 30 minutes during Friday's 124-118 loss to Miami.

Impact Hunter scored an efficient 20 points in the loss, the team's first game following the trade involving Cam Reddish. With Reddish now in New York, both Hunter and Kevin Huerter should be able to carve out a more consistent role. While both can be 12-team assets, Hunter is likely the preferred target due to his ability to contribute on both ends of the floor. If he's available, feel free to give him a look over the next few games to see if he can rediscover his production from early last season.

In starting lineup Hunter will return to the starting lineup in Friday's contest against the Heat, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.

Impact Hunter returned from a month-long absence and provided 15 points (4-11 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), one rebound, one block and one steal across 24 minutes in Wednesday's loss to the Heat. Expect his role to increase as he works himself back into form.

Scores 15 in return Hunter finished Wednesday's 115-91 loss to Miami with 15 points (4-11 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), one rebound, one block and one steal over 24 minutes.

Impact Hunter had been sidelined since Nov. 14 due to a wrist injury, and while he struggled from the field in this one, he still delivered a strong stat line from a scoring perspective. The third-year forward should ramp up from a conditioning perspective considering his lengthy absence, and it wouldn't be strange if he keeps coming off the bench in a few more games before eventually reclaiming his starting role.
