Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (knee) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Monday's meeting with Chicago. Atlanta continues to manage his right knee injury, and Hunter sat out Saturday's clash with Philadelphia as the team completed a back-to-back. Hunter is a talented player, but it's tough to rely on him in fantasy hoops if he's not 100 percent healthy. The 26-year-old has featured in five games since returning from a six-week absence, averaging 12.0 points and 2.4 rebounds in 19.6 minutes.

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (knee) has been listed as probable to play on Friday against the Philadelphia 76ers. The 26-year-old has only played 28 out of a possible 51 games so far this year after missing extended time due to a knee injury, but he has played four out of the team's last five games. He remains on a minutes restriction, but in their last contest, he played 23 minutes and posted 10 points, one rebound, one assist, and one turnover. Hunter could be more of a fantasy asset once he receives more minutes, but his production is going to be very inconsistent as long as he's on this restriction. He does play a big part in the Hawks' defense though.

The Atlanta Hawks are listing forward De'Andre Hunter (knee) as available for Wednesday's tilt against the Boston Celtics. The Hawks have upgraded Hunter's probable designation to available as they continue to monitor his right knee, which cost the forward over a month of action before returning on Jan. 30. Boston has allowed the fewest fantasy points to opposing forwards in 2023-24, so between the intimidating matchup and Hunter's likely minutes cap, he's a fade for fantasy purposes in all settings on Wednesday despite popping for 27 points in 19 minutes amid Monday's offensive slugfest with the Los Angeles Clippers. When the restrictions are lifted, the 26-year-old scoring wing should be a borderline play in points leagues, averaging 14.7 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 1.9 three-pointers on 40.5% shooting from downtown in 28.8 minutes through 27 games on the campaign for Atlanta.

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (knee) is on the injury report as questionable ahead of Monday's action versus the Clippers. The 26-year-old has just returned from a 19-game absence, and the team is trying to manage his right knee injury. Hunter sat out the first leg of a back-to-back on Friday versus Phoenix before returning to the court on Saturday against Golden State. He's been limited to 16 minutes in both of his outings since the long injury layoff, meaning fantasy managers won't currently get much value from Hunter.

Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen (ankle) is questionable against the Sacramento Kings on Monday as he deals with an ankle sprain. The ankle wasn't much of an issue in their last contest against the San Antonio Spurs on Saturday as he saw the court for 30 minutes and posted 26 points, 16 rebounds, and one turnover while shooting 12-for-18 from the floor. Allen hasn't had to miss a game since his four-game absence in the beginning of the season. This seems to be more of a game-time decision, so fantasy managers will have to wait and see the updates leading into the pregame warmups. As a backup plan, if Allen can't suit up in this contest, Evan Mobley will take on more of the frontcourt responsibilities while Caris LeVert and Georges Niang will see some added opportunities as well.
