Jeremy Lin Out While Kevin Huerter In Wednesday Night

Atlanta Hawks guard Kevin Huerter (back) is available to play, but Jeremy Lin (ankle) will not suit up Wednesday night against the Charlotte Hornets.

Jeremy Lin is Questionable for Wednesday

Atlanta Hawks point guard Jeremy Lin (ankle) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. It appears that Lin tweaked his ankle during Tuesday's game versus the Heat. This is the second game of a back-to-back set, so it wouldn't be surprising to see the Hawks be cautious here. Trae Young could […]

Kevin Huerter is Questionable on Wednesday

Atlanta Hawks guard Kevin Huerter (back) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets.

Atlanta Hawks guard/forward Kent Bazemore (ankle) is considered probable for Tuesday's game against the Miami Heat.

He's played less than 20 minutes in both of those contests. It appears Dewayne Dedmon is stealing Len's playing time. Len belongs […]

Atlanta Hawks small forward Taurean Prince got back to his scoring ways Sunday against the Charlotte Hornets, finishing with 16 points just one game after a two-point, zero-field goal outing.
