Scores six in win Hawkins accumulated six points (2-5 FG, 2-3 3Pt) and two assists in 12 minutes during Thursday's 123-104 victory over the Cavaliers.
Impact Hawkins' playing time has fluctuated in recent matchups, but he saw double-digit minutes off the bench Thursday and drilled a pair of three-pointers. He's had limited production over his last six appearances, averaging 3.2 points in 10.0 minutes per game.

Posts 13 points from bench Hawkins totaled 13 points (5-11 FG, 3-6 3Pt) and five rebounds in 25 minutes during Monday's 114-112 loss to the Jazz.
Impact Hawkins went back to the bench to make room for Zion Williamson, but with Hawkins putting up 25 points in Saturday's start, the team may be missing out on a valuable opportunity. Dyson Daniels isn't getting it done at the point, and although the UConn product played off-guard in college, the team would do well to give the first-round pick a crack at point guard before CJ McCollum (chest) returns. An eventual lineup of McCollum, Hawkins, Ingram and Williamson could be the future setup, so consider stashing Hawkins on your bench if he's available.

Not starting Monday Hawkins is not in the starting lineup to face the Jazz on Monday, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports.
Impact Nothing surprising here, as Hawkins will move back to the bench so Zion Williamson can start at his regular power forward spot. Hawkins is averaging 11.1 points, 3.9 rebounds and 2.0 assists per game off the bench this season.

Goes off for 25 points Saturday Hawkins chipped in 25 points (8-17 FG, 5-12 3Pt, 4-5 FT), six rebounds, three assists and one steal across 40 minutes during Saturday's 105-100 loss to the Jazz.
Impact Hawkins moved into the starting lineup after Zion Williamson was given the night off for rest purposes. The move obviously did wonders for his confidence, as he scored 25 points, the most he has delivered in almost two weeks. Although his contributions have scaled back a little, he remains a must-roster player in most formats as long as points and threes are high on your list of priorities.

Gets starting nod Hawkins will enter the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Jazz.
Impact Zion Williamson is getting a night off for rest on the second leg of the back-to-back set. In eight starts this season, Hawkins has averaged 14.3 points, 3.9 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 1.0 steals and 2.8 three-pointers.

Back in bench role Hawkins isn't in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Kings.
Impact Hawkins will retreat to the bench with Zion Williamson returning to the starting five. Hawkins has logged 33 and 26 minutes in his last two contests as a reserve, so he could be in store for a significant workload, especially with CJ McCollum (chest) remaining sidelined.

Excels off bench Hawkins notched 25 points (8-17 FG, 5-12 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds and three assists in 33 minutes during Tuesday's 131-110 victory over the Mavericks.
Impact Hawkins moved back to a bench role with Herbert Jones (leg) returning to action, but the former still played a prominent role and tied Brandon Ingram with a game-high 25 points. Hawkins has connected on multiple three-pointers in six straight contests, averaging 18.2 points, 4.7 rebounds and 3.8 made threes per game during that stretch. As long as CJ McCollum (chest), Trey Murphy (knee) and Jose Alvarado (ankle) remain out, Hawkins should have a clear path to 25-plus minutes a night, even if it's as a reserve.

Heads to bench Hawkins isn't in the starting five for Tuesday's game versus the Mavericks.
Impact The return of Herbert Jones from a leg injury will send Hawkins back to the bench after starting in New Orleans' previous four contests. However, with CJ McCollum (lungs) still out, Hawkins should continue to see extended playing time off the bench.

Brilliant as McCollum's fill-in Hawkins totaled 31 points (10-19 FG, 7-14 3Pt, 4-5 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and one steal in 38 minutes during Monday's 134-116 loss to Denver.
Impact There were several potential suitors for CJ McCollum's (lung) production, but Hawkins drew the start and made the most of his opportunity. His team-high scoring total makes him an excellent streaming option, and he could be even more valuable if McCollum's timetable is similar to his previous lung injury, which kept him out of action for six weeks.
