Dewayne Dedmon Ruled Out on Monday
Atlanta Hawks center Dewayne Dedmon (knee) has been ruled out of Monday's game against the Indiana Pacers. Alex Len will draw another start on Monday and played fairly well during his last start. Dedmon is worth holding onto in fantasy leagues unless this injury becomes more than a day-to-day type of issue.
Daniel Hamilton Will Start on Monday
Atlanta Hawks guard Daniel Hamilton will draw the start against the Indiana Pacers on Monday. Kent Bazemore (ankle) is unable to play, so Hamilton will draw the start. This will be Hamilton's first start of the season and his eighth appearance. He's been fantastic in the G-League and is worth keeping an eye on in […]

Kent Bazemore To Miss At Least Two Weeks
Atlanta Hawks shooting guard/small forward Kent Bazemore will be on the shelf for at least two more weeks as he rehabs a right ankle sprain.
