INJURIES

Back to bench Thursday Koloko is not in the Hawks' starting lineup against the Jazz on Thursday.
Impact Koloko has started in two of the Hawks' last three games in the absence of Onyeka Okongwu (mouth). Even with Okongwu ruled out Thursday, Koloko will revert to a bench role while newcomer Jock Landale makes his Hawks debut as a member of the team's starting five.
5 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE
Struggles in spot start Koloko finished with two points (0-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and two rebounds in 11 minutes during Tuesday's 127-115 win over the Heat.
Impact Koloko moved back into the starting lineup, although he continued to play backup-level minutes. With Onyeka Okongwu sidelined due to a recent dental procedure, Atlanta is basically doing anything it can to try to fill the vacant center spot. Despite the opportunity, Koloko is not someone who needs to be rostered, even in deeper formats.
FEBRUARY 4 • ROTOWIRE
Will start Tuesday Koloko will start against the Heat on Tuesday, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
Impact With Onyeka Okongwu (mouth) still out, Koloko will get the starting nod over Mouhamed Gueye on Tuesday. During his lone start with the Hawks in a loss to Houston on Thursday, Koloko posted six points (3-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt), seven rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 26 minutes.
FEBRUARY 4 • ROTOWIRE
Not starting vs. Indiana Koloko will not start against the Pacers on Saturday, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
Impact After starting Thursday's loss to Houston in place of Onyeka Okongwu (mouth), Koloko will slide to the second unit in favor of Mouhamed Gueye on Saturday. Over four appearances off the bench with Atlanta this season, Koloko has averaged 4.8 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.5 blocks in 13.3 minutes per contest.
JANUARY 31 • ROTOWIRE
Grabs seven boards and two stocks Koloko accumulated six points (3-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt), seven rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 26 minutes during Thursday's 104-86 loss to the Rockets.
Impact Koloko did a nice job making things difficult on Alperen Sengun, helping hold him to just nine points on 3-for-14 shooting. Onyeka Okongwu (teeth) has already been ruled out for Saturday's game in Indiana, so Koloko likely has another start coming his way. Give him a look if you need some boards and defensive stats.
JANUARY 30 • ROTOWIRE
Starting Thursday vs. Houtson Koloko is in the Hawks' starting lineup against the Rockets on Thursday, Lachard Binkley of SI.com reports.
Impact With Onyeka Okongwu (mouth) sidelined, Thursday will mark Koloko's first start and fifth appearance with the Hawks since signing a two-way deal with the team Jan. 16. Over his four prior outings with Atlanta, Koloko has averaged 4.8 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.5 blocks over 13.0 minutes per game.
JANUARY 30 • ROTOWIRE
Hawks get revenge en route to securing four-game win streak The Atlanta Hawks are now 4-0 in the Christian Koloko era.
JANUARY 29 • SOARINGDOWNSOUTH.COM
Strong line off bench Koloko had 12 points (6-6 FG), four rebounds, one assist and three blocks across 17 minutes during Monday's 132-116 win over the Pacers.
Impact Koloko, who recently signed a two-way contract with the Hawks on Jan. 16, made a very strong impression off the bench. He has seemingly pulled away from Mouhamed Gueye for the backup center role, and it's worth noting that Kristaps Porzingis (Achilles) won't be re-evaluated until next week.

Hawks' new two-way signing has a shockingly simple path to nightly minutes If everything goes according to plan, Christian Koloko could end up being a steal of a two-way contract.
JANUARY 17 • SOARINGDOWNSOUTH.COM
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.
JANUARY 16 • ROTOWIRE
Back on free-agent market Koloko became a free agent Monday after his second 10-day contract with the Grizzlies expired, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.
Impact Memphis would have the ability to retain Koloko by signing him to a rest-of-season deal, though it's unclear if the Grizzlies plan to keep him around with Zach Edey (ankle) seemingly drawing closer to a return to game action. Koloko was a regular member of the rotation over the course of his two 10-day deals, averaging 2.6 points, 4.0 rebounds, 1.2 blocks, 0.9 assists and 0.9 steals in 17.7 minutes per contest while shooting 40 percent from the field in 11 appearances.
JANUARY 12 • ROTOWIRE
Not starting Sunday Koloko won't start against the Lakers on Sunday, Daniel Starkand of LakersNation.com reports.
Impact With Jock Landale joining the starting five, Koloko will slide to the second unit. Over six outings (two starts) with the Grizzlies this season, the third-year big man has averaged 2.2 points, 3.3 rebounds, 1.2 steals and 1.2 blocks in 19.2 minutes per contest.
JANUARY 5 • ROTOWIRE
Gets another 10 day-deal The Grizzlies signed Koloko to a second 10-day contract Friday, ESPN's Shams Charania reports.
Impact The Grizzlies are still desperate for frontcourt depth, so this isn't a surprise. Through five appearances so far, Koloko is averaging 2.0 points, 3.6 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.2 blocks in 18.6 minutes.
JANUARY 2 • ROTOWIRE
Scoreless in start Koloko contributed zero points (0-2 FG), three rebounds and two assists over 20 minutes during Tuesday's 139-136 overtime loss to the 76ers.
Impact Koloko received his first start of the season, failing to score in 20 minutes. While he has played at least 20 minutes in three straight games, Koloko has by no means been an impactful player, having scored a total of eight points in that time. Jock Landale returned from a calf injury Tuesday, and could eventually supplant Koloko in the starting lineup.
DECEMBER 31, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Starting Tuesday Koloko is in the Grizzlies' starting lineup against the 76ers on Tuesday, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.
Impact For the final game within his 10-day contract, Koloko will enter the Grizzlies' starting lineup for the first time this season while Santi Aldama comes off the bench. Koloko has played at least 25 minutes in back-to-back games and gives the Grizzlies added size against 2023-24 MVP Joel Embiid.
DECEMBER 31, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Swats three shots Koloko chipped in four points (2-5 FG), seven rebounds, one assist, three blocks and one steal in 25 minutes during Sunday's 116-112 loss to the Wizards.
Impact With Memphis' frontcourt depleted by injuries, Koloko is getting a big opportunity to impress. He's not known for his offense, but as long as the minutes are there, he could provide a handful of rebounds and defensive stats for fantasy managers in deeper formats.

DECEMBER 23, 2025 • LAKESHOWLIFE.COM
Signs with Memphis Koloko signed a hardship contract with the Grizzlies on Monday, ESPN's Shams Charania reports.
Impact The Grizzlies are in urgent need of some frontcourt depth with Zach Edey (ankle) and Brandon Clarke (calf) both banged up. Koloko has had stints with the Lakers and Raptors, and he holds career averages of 2.8 points, 2.7 rebounds and 0.8 blocks in 11.9 minutes across 97 appearances.
DECEMBER 22, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Waived by LAL The Lakers waived Koloko on Monday, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
Impact After spending the 2024-25 campaign on a two-way contract with the Lakers, Koloko signed another one-year, two-way pact with the club in July. However, the big man will now have to explore other opportunities after being let go. In a corresponding move, Los Angeles signed Drew Timme to a two-way deal.
