Dylan Windler News, Rumors, Updates - Atlanta Hawks

Out Friday Windler won't play in Friday's game versus the Pistons due to an ankle injury, Evan Dammarell of SBNation.com reports.

Impact Despite being available Wednesday, Windler has yet to make his season debut due to an ankle injury. While the third-year forward's status Wednesday seems like it would mean he will return soon, the Cavaliers are treating his injury as day-to-day. Cedi Osman should continue to see extended minutes while Windler is out.

Available Wednesday Windler (ankle) will play Wednesday against the Celtics.

Impact Initially deemed questionable, Windler will finally be available for his season debut for the Cavaliers. The third-year guard averaged just 9.2 minutes per game last season and will have to vie for minutes again in 2022-23 on an improved roster.

NOVEMBER 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable for Wednesday's game Windler (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's matchup against Boston, Evan Dammarell of SBNation.com reports.

Impact Windler has yet to play this season due to an ankle injury, but he's being listed as questionable for the first time, suggesting he's nearing a return to game action. The 2019 first-round pick has battled multiple long-term injuries since entering the league and figures to have a minor role for the Cavaliers again this year.

Still sidelined Saturday Windler (ankle) will sit out again Saturday against the Bulls, Kelsey Russo of The Athletic reports.

Impact Windler will miss his second consecutive contest to open the 2022-23 season as he recovers from a right ankle sprain that surfaced heading into the preseason. It's unclear when he'll get the green light to rejoin the action, but his next opportunity surfaces Sunday versus the Wizards.

OCTOBER 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Out for opener Windler (ankle) won't make the trip to Toronto for Wednesday's season opener versus the Raptors, Spencer Davies of BasketballNews.com reports.

Impact Windler was unavailable for the preseason while working back from an ankle injury, and it appears the issue will also continue into the regular season. Windler was rumored to be in the mix for a starting spot at one point, but he will presumably settle into a bench role once he's back in the mix.

OCTOBER 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Done for preseason Windler (ankle) will not make another appearance during the preseason, Evan Dammarell of SBNation.com reports.

Impact Coach J.B. Bickerstaff suggested Monday that Windler is progressing in his rehab but indicated 24 hours later that he wouldn't join in on the preseason action. He was reportedly part of the mix as an outside shot to start at small forward entering 2022-23 but will likely settle into a bench role again. Windler doesn't contribute enough to sport much fantasy value in most formats for 2022-23 but could attain more if others ahead of him in the rotation miss time.

OCTOBER 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Progressing in recovery Coach J.B. Bickerstaff said Monday Windler (ankle) is still progressing in his recovery, Evan Dammarell of SBNation.com reports.

Impact Windler has been dealing with a right ankle sprain for nearly a week, but he's getting close to partaking in standstill shooting. He should be unavailable for Monday's preseason matchup against the 76ers, but it's not yet clear whether he'll be able to return for either of the Cavaliers' final two exhibition games.

OCTOBER 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Not practicing Friday Cavaliers head coach J.B. Bickerstaff said that Windler (ankle) did not participate in Friday's practice, Evan Dammarell of SBNation.com reports.

Impact Bickerstaff mentioned that Windler was improving, but the forward hasn't returned to the court after injuring his ankle during Tuesday's practice. If Windler doesn't play in the Cavs' upcoming preseason game against the 76ers on Monday, his next chance to make his debut will be Wednesday against the Hawks.

OCTOBER 7, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play Wednesday Windler won't play in Wednesday's preseason contest against the 76ers due to a right ankle sprain, Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Impact Per Fedor, Windler picked up the minor ankle injury at the end of Tuesday's practice, but it isn't expected to be a major issue. However, due to Windler's injury history, the Cavaliers have elected to be cautious with the forward, who's in the mix for a starting job during the 2022-23 campaign. After Wednesday's matchup, Cleveland will have three more exhibition games before opening the regular season against the Raptors on Oct. 19.

In mix for starting job Head coach J.B. Bickerstaff lauded Windler's play since returning to the club after Labor Day and suggested he's among the candidates to start at small forward to open 2022-23, Eva...

Impact Windler spent some of last season in the G League and averaged under 10 minutes per game with the parent club, but it appears he's made huge strides this offseason and could challenge for a starting gig. Even if he claims a spot, the upgraded Cavs have numerous options ahead of him in the pecking order for usage. Still, it would mean a sizable jump in minutes, and he could creep onto the fantasy radar in some formats.

SEPTEMBER 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Team-high nine rebounds Windler produced five points (1-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), nine rebounds, two assists and two steals across 16 minutes during Monday's 107-101 victory over the Magic.

Impact Windler was an active performer in a battered Cleveland frontcourt. Jarrett Allen (finger) has no immediate timetable to return and Evan Mobley exited Monday's contest early with an ankle sprain. Additionally, with Dean Wade (knee) out for the remainder of the season, Windler is likely due for a further uptick in usage.
