Hawks vs. Thunder Postgame Press Conference: Asa Newell

OCTOBER 26, 2025 • YOUTUBE

First double-double of NBA career Newell totaled 12 points (4-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 10 rebounds and one assist over 25 minutes during the Hawks' 117-100 loss to the Thunder on Saturday.

Impact Newell didn't play Opening Night against the Raptors and saw the floor for just four minutes during the Hawks' win over the Magic on Friday. However, the rookie first-rounder got an extended run Saturday due to the absences of Zaccharie Risacher (ankle), Jalen Johnson (ankle) and Kristaps Porzingis (illness). Newell took advantage of the playing time and showed high energy on the floor as he hauled in seven of the Hawks' 15 offensive rebounds en route to the first double-double of his NBA career. The No. 23 overall pick of the 2025 NBA Draft could carve a consistent role for himself amidst a crowded Atlanta frontcourt if he continues to play well off the bench.

Scores five in four minutes Newell logged five points (2-3 FG, 1-1 3Pt) over four minutes during Friday's 111-107 victory over Orlando.

Impact Newell didn't get much time on the floor, but made use of it, connecting on two of three field-goal attempts. Despite maximizing his short time in Friday's game, Newell likely won't make much of an impact from a fantasy perspective this season.

Returning to bench role Newell will be deployed off the bench in Thursday's preseason game against the Rockets, Danielle Lerner of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Impact Newell took full advantage of an opportunity to start Monday, totaling 19 points, eight boards, two assists, two steals and two blocks in 36 minutes. However, he'll retreat to his usual role Thursday with Atlanta's usual starting five back in action.

Elite two-way performance Newell compiled 19 points (7-18 FG, 0-6 3Pt, 5-9 FT), eight rebounds, two assists, two steals and two blocks in 36 minutes during Monday's preseason win over the Heat.

Impact Newell was fantastic in the win, putting up numbers on both ends of the floor. He flashed tremendous defensive upside, while also showing some nice aggression on the offensive end. While his shooting remains an issue, Newell is an interesting prospect indeed. Taken with the 23rd overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft, the Hawks are positioned to be able to bring him along slowly this season. This won't allow his skill set to translate to fantasy value, but he is certainly a name to monitor moving forward.
