Onyeka Okongwu's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Atlanta Hawks forward Onyeka Okongwu (knee) will miss at least four games due to left knee inflammation. He will be re-evaluated in a week. The 24-year-old is currently having the best season of his career, averaging 11.3 points and 6.6 rebounds. But while he's sidelined, Larry Nance Jr. could see some minutes at the five spot. However, Nance has some work to do to gain the trust of fantasy managers, although he's worth considering for rosters if he can make good use of his time on the court.

Atlanta Hawks forward Onyeka Okongwu (toe) has been added to the injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. It's the first game of a back-to-back set, so the Hawks might decide to give Okongwu a rest night on Sunday. He has been quiet since his 28-point outing during the season opener. Since then, Okongwu is averaging 8.5 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 0.3 blocks over his last four games. Larry Nance Jr. and Dominick Barlow figure to see extended playing time if Okongwu is unable to play on Sunday or Monday.

Atlanta Hawks center Onyeka Okongwu (toe) played in the first half of the team's back-to-back, but will not suit up for the second half on Monday. The big man is listed as out with toe injury management after he played 23 minutes on Sunday and registered 14 points, three rebounds, one assist, and one steal. We've entered another season waiting for him to become the starter, but Clint Capela remains in the starting five and should see extra minutes on Monday. Larry Nance Jr. will likely see more minutes off of the bench too.
