Clint Capela Will Play On Friday
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela will be in the lineup on Friday against Minnesota. He was initially listed as questionable for the game, as Atlanta considered resting Capela, but the Swiss big man has been upgraded to available.

Dejounte Murray Considered Questionable For Friday
Atlanta Hawks guard Dejounte Murray (quadriceps) has been listed as questionable for Friday's matchup against Minnesota.

De'Andre Hunter Rested Versus Hornets
Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (rest) will miss Wednesday's game against Charlotte. He comes out of the lineup for rest purposes after logging 47 minutes in a double-overtime game against Miami on Tuesday.

Trae Young Returning With Minutes Restriction
Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young (finger) will rejoin the lineup on Wednesday against Charlotte but will carry a minutes restriction. It's unclear how many minutes he will get in his first action in 24 games, but the team will be delighted to see him back, with the play-in tournament starting next week. Young's return […]

We're back to getting these weird three-game slates on Saturdays in the NBA, but that's OK because there's still money to be made!

Giannis, Middleton, and the crew […]

Atlanta Hawks guard Kobe Bufkin (toe) will miss a 14th consecutive game on Saturday against Milwaukee. He's been out since March 5 with a left big toe sprain.
