Free-agent forward
Saddiq Bey agreed to a three-year, $20 million deal with the Washington Wizards. The 25-year-old averaged 13.7 points, 6.5 rebounds, and 1.5 assists last season. Unfortunately, he suffered a torn ACL, limiting him to only 63 games. While Bey is still working his way back from the injury, he has a chance to carve out a meaningful role with the Wizards during the 2024-25 campaign, making him a stashable fantasy asset for when he returns.

The Atlanta Hawks declined to extend a qualifying offer to forward
Saddiq Bey, making him an unrestricted free agent. The former Villanova Wildcat averaged 13.7 points, 6.5 rebounds, and 1.5 assists in 2023-24. Unfortunately, he tore his ACL, limiting him to 63 games. Without a doubt, Bey will draw interest from teams around the National Basketball Association, especially from teams with cap space. While his fantasy outlook hinges on where he'll end up for the 2024-25 campaign, he should remain a relatively reliable producer for managers as long as he stays healthy.

Atlanta Hawks forward
Saddiq Bey (knee) hyperextended his knee at the beginning of the fourth quarter while on a fastbreak and exited the game. The Hawks later announced that he would not return. The fourth-year sharpshooter has only missed one game so far this season, so hopefully the hyperextended knee doesn't cause him to miss that much time. The team announced pretty quickly that it was a hyperextension, so it's unclear if there will be any more tests on it the next day. Fantasy managers will have to stay tuned to an official report to see if he'll miss extended time. If he does have to miss at least one game,
De'Andre Hunter would likely be the next man up.

Atlanta Hawks forward
Saddiq Bey (ankle) could be out for a second consecutive game on Monday against the Clippers. Bey sprained his left ankle against Phoenix on Friday and wasn't available for Saturday's contest versus Golden State.
Garrison Mathews took Bey's spot in the starting unit but logged only 16 minutes.
Bogdan Bogdanovic ended up picking up extra shifts off the bench and logged nearly 40 minutes in an overtime game. He will be counted on a lot again if Bey can't play on Monday.
