Atlanta Hawks

Atlanta Hawks forward Jalen Johnson (leg) is active for Wednesday night's game against the Golden State Warriors. Johnson missed Monday night's game with leg inflammation but will be back in action against a fast-paced Warriors team that is prone to giving up points in the paint. With the 22-year-old averaging 19.4 PPG, 9.9 RPG and 5.4 APG he remains a must start in all fantasy formats. DFS managers need to find a way to get Johnson into their lineups as well. The forward has the potential to make a large impact on Wednesday night in a game with a high expected total.

Atlanta Hawks forward Jalen Johnson (leg) is questionable for Wednesday's matchup versus the Warriors. Johnson has played well this season, averaging career-highs in points (19.4), rebounds (9.9), and assists (5.4). He missed Monday's one-point win over the Sacramento Kings on Monday because of left leg inflammation. If the 22-year-old can't suit up against Golden State, Garrison Mathews may remain in the starting lineup. However, Dyson Daniels and De'Andre Hunter are the players who could continue to benefit the most, with the duo combining for 38 points on Monday.

Atlanta Hawks guard/forward Bogdan Bogdanovic (hamstring) spent 18 minutes on the floor as he returned to action against Sacramento in Monday's 109-108 win. He made only his second appearance of the season after being sidelined for three weeks due to a hamstring injury. Bogdanovic finished the contest with six points on 2-for-7 shooting, adding three rebounds and three assists to his tally. The Serbian veteran clearly has to shake off some rust, and fantasy managers must be patient with him. Garrison Mathews' role in the rotation is under threat following Bogdanovic's return.

Atlanta Hawks forward Jalen Johnson (leg) has been ruled out of Monday's game against the Sacramento Kings. The team announced that Johnson is dealing with left lateral lower leg inflammation. The 22-year-old has been an integral part of the Hawks' lineup, averaging 19.4 PPG, 9.9 RPG and 5.4 APG. Garrison Mathews is starting in Johnson's place, though Johnson's absence should mean more expected points production from rookie Zaccarie Risacher and more rebounding production from Clint Capela. Fantasy managers and DFS managers may find more value in Risacher than Capela.

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (Achilles) won't play in Tuesday's meeting with the Celtics. He's dealing with right Achilles Tendinitis, with Tuesday's absence marking his first of the 2024-25 campaign. Outside of Young's turnover woes and 33.3% shooting from behind the arc, he has played well this season, averaging 23.9 points and 11.5 assists. As such, the Hawks will need others to step up without him on the floor on Tuesday (and possibly beyond). Keaton Wallace, averaging 5.4 points this season, will likely slide into the starting lineup and draw streaming attention from fantasy managers. At the same time, Zaccharie Risacher, Jalen Johnson, and Dyson Daniels should see an uptick in scoring chances.
