Onyeka Okongwu Sits Out Sixth Consecutive Game Monday
8 months agoAtlanta Hawks center Onyeka Okongwu (toe) will be out of the lineup for a sixth consecutive game on Monday versus the Bulls. The talented big man has been limited to just two appearances since Feb. 12 due to a toe injury. Bruno Fernando will continue to roll as Clint Capela's backup. Centers typically get an even workload in Atlanta, and the pair will have a decent matchup on Monday. Chicago's defensive numbers are mediocre across the board, including against opposing bigs. Centers average 22.1 points and 14.6 rebounds per 48 minutes against them, shooting 56.7 percent from the floor.
