Availability
Asa Newell started for the first time in his brief NBA career as he filled in for the injured Jalen Johnson. He scored two points, grabbed four rebounds, and had one assist in 25 minutes during Monday's loss to Minnesota.
Fantasy Impact
Newell, who has played sparingly in his rookie season, was averaging just over 11 minutes per game in his first 37 contests before getting the start on Monday. He is averaging 5.2 points, 2.1 rebounds, and 0.5 assists this season and will return to the bench once Johnson is able to return to the lineup.
Asa Newell is listed as available for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers
Fantasy Impact
Newell suffered a right quad contusion in Sunday’s 124-111 win over the Golden State Warriors, but will be able to play through the injury. He should see some playing time with Kristaps Porzingis (Achilles) ruled out.
Asa Newell is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers.
Fantasy Impact
Newell was limited to just four minutes in Sunday’s 124-111 win over the Golden State Warriors due to a right quad contusion. He is listed as questionable and will likely go through Tuesday’s shootaround before the Atlanta Hawks provide an update on his status. If he is unavailable, Mouhamed Gueye would likely pick up a few extra minutes off the bench.
Asa Newell suffered a right quad contusion in Sunday's 124-111 win over the Golden State Warriors.
Fantasy Impact
Newell was limited to just four minutes Sunday due to a quad injury, finishing with one rebound and one block. The rookie will likely be re-evaluated on Monday ahead of the Atlanta Hawks’ injury report for Tuesday’s game against the Los Angeles Lakers. If he's unavailable, Mouhamed Gueye would likely pick up a few extra minutes off the bench.
The New Orleans Pelicans selected Asa Newell with the No. 23 overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft.
Fantasy Impact
Newell averaged 15.4 points, 6.9 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 1.0 block per game in his lone season at Georgia. The big knock on him is his shooting from deep which he'll have to improve on at the next level. He should play a decent immediate role.
