Dyson Daniels's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Atlanta Hawks guard Dyson Daniels (illness) has been listed as active for Wednesday night's game against the Denver Nuggets. Daniels had missed the last two games with an illness but is able to suit up in Denver on Wednesday. Daniels has been a rewarding fantasy option from a defensive perspective, averaging 3.1 steals per game and 0.9 blocks with the Hawks this season. As an offensive producer, there's a bigger question mark, as he averages just 13.0 points per game. But when combined with his defensive stats, he becomes an intriguing fantasy option. With the Hawks set to play in a high-paced game in Denver and with Atlanta already missing Jalen Johnson, more opportunities may be coming Daniels' way. He's an intriguing option for Wednsday night in all fantasy formats.

Atlanta Hawks guard/forward Dyson Daniels (illness) appears ready to rejoin the action on Wednesday versus Denver, with the team listing him as probable for the game. The NBA's steals leader has missed two games due to an illness. Vit Krejci will return to a backup role on Wednesday with Daniels active. The 21-year-old has made himself a name as a defensive specialist, but Daniels also contributes well on the offensive end. He's averaging 13.0 points for the season and has been hot from downtown lately, hitting 7-for-12 from behind the arc across his past three appearances.

Atlanta Hawks guard Dyson Daniels (illness) won't play on Saturday against the Heat. The 21-year-old is having the best season of his career, averaging 13.0 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 3.1 steals. Hopefully, the illness he's dealing with won't keep him off the floor moving ahead. However, with Onyeka Okongwu (knee) and Bogdan Bogdanovic (leg) also sidelined, the door is open for De'Andre Hunter, who had 25 points in Thursday's win over the Bulls, to remain more involved on the scoring end. DFS managers should also consider Larry Nance Jr. and Garrison Mathews for value opportunities.
