Dyson Daniels - Iffy for Saturday Daniels (ankle) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Celtics.

Impact Daniels is managing a right ankle sprain that clouds his availability for Saturday's home contest. The guard has been productive in January, averaging 12.6 points, 7.0 rebounds, 7.0 assists and 1.8 steals in 34.9 minutes per game across eight appearances. If he's unable to suit up, the Hawks could turn to recently acquired CJ McCollum in the starting lineup.

Zaccharie Risacher - Ruled out for Saturday Risacher (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Celtics.

Impact Risacher will miss his fifth consecutive contest due to a left knee injury, and his next opportunity to play will come Monday against the Bucks. With the second-year forward remaining on the shelf, Vit Krejci and Corey Kispert are candidates to see increased playing time.

Kristaps Porzingis - Ruled out for Saturday Porzingis won't play in Saturday's game against Boston due to left Achilles tendinitis, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Impact Porzingis is out for a fifth consecutive contest and holds no definitive timeline for a return. Onyeka Okongwu should continue to dominate the center minutes Saturday, with Mouhamed Gueye helping pick up the slack left behind by Porzingis' absence.

Christian Koloko - Signing two-way deal with Hawks The Hawks are signing Koloko to a two-way contract Friday, per Lauren L. Williams of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

Impact Koloko was with the Grizzlies on a 10-day deal earlier this year and will now help bolster the Atlanta depth chart at center. He most recently appeared for the G League's Austin Spurs but is now set to report to the College Park Skyhawks for G League reps.

Nickeil Alexander-Walker - Strong campaign continues Alexander-Walker posted 11 points (2-6 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 5-6 FT), six rebounds, seven assists and one steal over 29 minutes during Thursday's 117-101 loss to the Trail Blazers.

Impact Alexander-Walker is enjoying a successful first year in Atlanta so far, and he should continue to do so with Trae Young (knee) now out of the picture altogether. Over his last 10 contests, Alexander-Walker has averaged 20.9 points, 4.3 rebounds, 3.9 assists and 1.5 steals in 33.8 minutes per game.

Vít Krejcí - Notches eight points Krejci provided eight points (3-5 FG, 2-4 3Pt), one rebound, one assist and one block across 21 minutes during Thursday's 117-101 loss to the Trail Blazers.

Impact Although Krejci drew the start, the Hawks utilized a lot of smaller lineups with CJ McCollum playing 29 minutes off the bench with 20 points to his name. Krejci's fantasy appeal remains limited to deeper formats with averages of 7.5 points, 2.5 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.6 three-pointers over his last eight games.

Jalen Johnson - Double-doubles in loss Johnson recorded 12 points (4-9 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 11 rebounds and six assists across 38 minutes during Thursday's 117-101 loss to Portland.

Impact With Trae Young out of the equation, all signs point to continued success for Johnson as the face of the franchise. Through 39 regular-season appearances, Johnson is on pace to return first-round value in nine-category formats with 23.1 points, 10.1 rebounds, 8.1 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.6 three-pointers.

Dyson Daniels - Scores 10 points in loss Daniels contributed 10 points (5-9 FG), five rebounds, one assist and one steal over 33 minutes during Thursday's 117-101 loss to the Trail Blazers.

Impact Daniels did not attempt any three-pointers, and his confidence from beyond the arc likely isn't there with an 11.3 percent mark for the season. He's been solid elsewhere, however, posting averages of 11.7 points, 6.6 rebounds, 6.1 assists and 1.9 steals in 34.1 minutes per contest.

Onyeka Okongwu - Tallies 26 points in loss Okongwu collected 26 points (10-21 FG, 5-15 3Pt, 1-1 FT), nine rebounds, two assists, three steals and one block in 37 minutes during Thursday's 117-101 loss to the Trail Blazers.

Impact Okongwu wasn't afraid to let it fly, and while he didn't have the greatest night from beyond the arc, he led Atlanta in points, made threes and steals. The USC product also fell just one rebound shy of a double-double as he continues to make his presence felt on the glass. This was an improved performance out of Okongwu, who was held to seven points on 3-for-8 from the field in his previous showing Tuesday against the Lakers.

Mouhamed Gueye - Available to play Gueye (ankle) is available for Thursday's game in Portland, Kevin Chouinard of the Hawks' official site reports.

Impact Gueye should be more involved in the rotation with Kristaps Porzingis (Achilles) out again, so he's on the radar as a potential deep league streamer if you need some defensive stats. Over the past four games, Gueye has posted averages of 5.0 points, 5.5 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 2.3 steals in 24.2 minutes per contest.

Luke Kennard - Good to go Thursday Kennard (neck) is available for Thursday's game against the Trail Blazers, Kevin Chouinard of the Hawks' official site reports.

Impact Kennard was trending in the right direction after being upgraded to probable earlier in the day, and the team has since cleared him to suit up after missing Tuesday's game with a neck sprain. He's averaging 13.0 points, 1.0 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.0 steals in his last five appearances, all as a reserve.
