Vít Krejcí - Out Monday Krejci has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Kings due to right adductor strain injury management, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Impact Krejci made his return from a nine-game absence Sunday, playing 21 minutes off the bench during a loss to Portland. As expected, he'll be sidelined for the second half of Atlanta's back-to-back set but should return to be available Wednesday in Golden State. However, with Atlanta getting close to full strength, it's unclear how many minutes will be available for Krejci moving forward.

Kobe Bufkin - Available Monday Bufkin (shoulder) isn't listed on the injury report for Monday's game against the Kings, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Impact Bufkin is cleared to make his season debut after missing the first month due to a dislocated right shoulder. The Hawks will be surprisingly healthy Monday, so it's unclear if Bufkin will actually see any playing time.

De'Andre Hunter - Good to go Monday Hunter (knee) isn't listed on the Hawks' injury report for Monday's game against the Kings, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Impact As expected, Hunter is good to go Monday after missing the first half of the back-to-back set for right knee injury management. On Friday, Hunter made his return from a 10-game absence due to a knee injury and scored 22 points (7-13 FG), in 21 minutes during a win over Washington.

Bogdan Bogdanovic - Not listed on injury report Bogdanovic (hamstring) isn't listed on the Hawks' injury report for Monday's game against the Kings, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Impact Bogdanovic was recently sent to the G League as part of his rehab, and it appears everything went well, as the sharpshooter is cleared to make his first appearance since the season opener. Given the lengthy layoff and the unexpected stellar play from Dyson Daniels, Atlanta can likely afford to ease Bogdanovic back into his usual role. Bogdanovic averaged a career-high 30.4 minutes per game last year.

Clint Capela - Plays just 20 minutes Capela provided eight points (4-9 FG, 0-2 FT), eight rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal in 20 minutes during Sunday's 114-110 loss to the Trail Blazers.

Impact Capela played 20 minutes compared to Onyeka Okongwu, and it doesn't help his case that he was severely outplayed as well. Despite holding onto the starting role, his minutes have suffered in recent games, as he's played 22 or fewer minutes in four of his last five outings.

Vít Krejcí - Posts well-rounded line in return Krejci (adductor) tallied eight points (3-5 FG, 2-3 3Pt), three assists, two rebounds, one steal and one block in 21 minutes off the bench in Sunday's 114-110 loss to the Trail Bla...

Impact Making his return from a nine-game absence due to a right adductor strain, Krejci slotted back into the Atlanta rotation and finished second to only center Onyeka Okongwu in minutes among Hawks reserves. Though he produced well across the board during his time on the court, Krejci is likely to see his minutes trend downward from here. De'Andre Hunter (knee) sat out Sunday due to injury management but should be back in action Monday in Sacramento, while Kobe Bufkin (shoulder) and Bogdan Bogdanovic (hamstring) also appear poised to return from multi-game absences at some point during the upcoming week.
