Vit Krejci scored 12 points (4-8 FG, 3-5 3PT, 1-1 FT), adding three rebounds, six assists, and one steal over 26 minutes in Atlanta's loss to Phoenix. His efficient shooting from beyond the arc helped keep the Hawks within striking distance.

Fantasy Impact: Krejci’s three-point shooting and playmaking make him an intriguing option in deeper leagues. While his role in the Hawks’ offense is limited, performances like this suggest potential value as a streaming option for managers needing threes and assists.

Dyson Daniels contributed 13 points (6-12 FG, 1-2 3PT), four rebounds, three assists, and three steals over 36 minutes. His defensive efforts were instrumental in generating transition opportunities for Atlanta.

Fantasy Impact: Daniels’ ability to contribute in multiple categories, especially in steals, enhances his fantasy appeal. He’s a valuable option in deeper leagues for managers seeking defensive stats and efficient shooting.

Clint Capela posted 10 points (4-11 FG, 2-2 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists, and two blocks over 26 minutes in Atlanta's loss. His presence in the paint was a key factor in slowing down Phoenix’s interior scoring.

Fantasy Impact: Capela’s rebounding and shot-blocking continue to make him a reliable option for managers in need of big-man stats. His consistent production in defensive categories ensures value in category leagues.

Zaccharie Risacher recorded 14 points (6-14 FG, 2-4 3PT), six rebounds, and zero turnovers across 24 minutes in Atlanta's victory over the Jazz.

Fantasy Impact: Risacher continues to showcase his ability to contribute efficiently, particularly with his three-point shooting and rebounding. His limited minutes cap his fantasy ceiling, but he remains a promising asset in deeper leagues. Managers should watch his development for future value.

De'Andre Hunter added 17 points (5-11 FG, 4-7 3PT, 3-5 FT) with four rebounds over 27 minutes off the bench in the Hawks' win.

Fantasy Impact: Hunter's scoring ability and three-point efficiency make him a valuable option in deeper fantasy leagues. While his production can be inconsistent, his ability to contribute in points and three-pointers gives him upside as a streaming option. Fantasy managers should monitor his role in Atlanta's rotation.

Onyeka Okongwu turned in a double-digit rebound effort in 24 minutes, grabbing 11 boards (7 offensive) to go with 14 points on 7-of-12 shooting. He dished 2 assists, registered 1 block, and avoided turnovers in a -7 plus/minus performance.

Fantasy Impact: Okongwu’s strong presence on the offensive glass continues to provide second-chance opportunities. His combination of boards, efficient scoring, and occasional defensive stats make him a reliable frontcourt option. He’s worth consideration in all formats, especially if his minutes trend upward.

Fantasy Impact: Nance suffered the injury in Saturday's game against the Heat. His absence likely won't impact the rotation for the Hawks.

Garrison Mathews had a strong scoring night off the bench for the Atlanta Hawks in their 120-110 win over the Miami Heat on Friday. Mathews scored 18 points on 5-for-8 shooting from the field, including 4-for-7 from three-point range. He also added four free throws, two rebounds, and two assists.

Fantasy Impact: Mathews provided a scoring boost for the Hawks, taking advantage of the increased opportunities with several key players out. While his role and minutes can fluctuate, he's a player to watch in deeper leagues when he's seeing significant playing time.

Kobe Bufkin will undergo season-ending shoulder surgery.

Fantasy Impact: Bufkin appeared in just 10 games this season. He'll rehab to make a full recovery for next year.

Fantasy Impact: The big man is set to miss yet another game due to a personal issue of some kind. He's not with the team currently, so it looks like he's going to miss more time beyond this game. Fantasy managers shouldn't bother rostering him until we have more clarity about his situation.

David Roddy scored 17 points (5-10 FG, 1-4 3PT, 6-6 FT) to go along with four rebounds, one assist and two steals in the Hawks 133-120 loss against the Wizards.

Fantasy Impact: Roddy got the start for Atlanta with Dyson Daniels sidelined. He'll be worth streaming in deeper leagues for as long as he remains in the starting lineup.
