Flirts with quad-double in win Daniels accumulated nine points (4-9 FG, 1-2 FT), 10 rebounds, seven assists, one block and six steals over 31 minutes during Saturday's 124-121 victory over the Nets.

Impact Daniels was a beast on both ends of the floor, nudging a rare quadruple-double, despite scoring just nine points. Although his offensive output has been somewhat underwhelming, Daniels' contributions across the board have been ultra-effective. Look for him to continue racking up the stats when Atlanta hosts the Lakers on Monday.

Flirts with triple-double in win Daniels finished Friday's 139-132 victory over Washington with 13 points (6-9 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), nine rebounds, 12 assists and two steals across 34 minutes.

Impact Daniels fell one rebound short of a triple-double, including a season-high 12 assists.

He has been a top 50 player thus far this season, averaging 9.9 points, 6.9 rebounds, 5.3 assists and 2.6 steals in 30.1 minutes per game.

Pulls down 16 boards Daniels contributed eight points (4-13 FG, 0-4 3Pt), 16 rebounds and eight assists in 34 minutes during Wednesday's 120-105 victory over the Wizards.

Impact Daniels struggled to find his shooting touch but compensated with a dominant effort on the glass, grabbing seven offensive rebounds. The versatile wing also paced Atlanta with eight assists while committing just two turnovers. Although he failed to register a steal or block, his ability to contribute heavily in rebounds and assists helped salvage a productive fantasy outing.

Active defensively in loss Daniels provided eight points (3-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), four rebounds, three assists and three steals in 27 minutes during Saturday's 121-99 loss to New Orleans.

Impact It was the fourth time in seven games that Daniels recorded at least three steals, and his 3.0 steals per game average is tied with Collin Gillespie for second-most in the Association behind Zion Williamson (3.2). Daniels has failed to score in double digits in each of his last four outings after doing so in each of the first three games of the regular season. However, the fifth-year pro may be forced to take on a larger role offensively if Jalen Johnson were to be sidelined due to a left ankle injury that he picked up during Saturday's loss.

Hands out seven dimes with four stocks Daniels accumulated seven points (3-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, seven assists, one block and three steals across 28 minutes during Wednesday's 129-117 loss to Miami.

Impact Daniels was limited to just four points, four assists and one steal his last time out, and while the scoring was still low, it was nice to see him come through with the dimes and defensive stats. He's been a top-50 option through the first five games of the season with averages of 12.0 points, 5.0 rebounds, 4.2 assists, 3.4 steals and just 0.8 turnovers per contest.

Solid numbers in Saturday's loss Daniels ended with 18 points (8-11 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and one steal over 29 minutes before fouling out of Saturday's 121-114 loss to Houston.

Impact The fifth-year wing wasn't able to keep up his blistering defensive start to the season, but Daniels still put together a productive night. Through three games, Daniels is averaging 16.3 points, 7.0 boards, 4.3 steals and 3.3 assists over 29.0 minutes while shooting a scalding 61.8 percent from the floor.

OCTOBER 25 • ROTOWIRE

Excellent all-around showing Daniels delivered 11 points (5-10 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-3 FT), nine rebounds, four assists, seven steals and a block across 23 minutes in Friday's 128-81 win over the Hornets.

Impact Daniels needed just 23 minutes to produce an outstanding defensive performance, with his seven steals providing an enormous fantasy boost, and a double-digit steals outing would've been within reach had he played more. His rebounding was equally encouraging, falling one board short of a double-double despite the reduced workload. While that level of steals production is unsustainable, Daniels' ability to generate defensive stats gives him considerable fantasy upside even when his scoring remains modest.

Dominates season opener Daniels closed with 20 points (8-13 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 4-6 FT), four rebounds, three assists and five steals in 35 minutes during Wednesday's 132-125 victory over the Magic.

Impact Daniels was in his bag to begin the season, getting it done on both ends of the floor. Coming off a strong showing during the 2025-26 season, Daniels will look to advance his game this year, particularly on the offensive end. Although he missed both of his three-point attempts, the fact that he attempted 13 shots was encouraging. He has a chance to lead the league in steals, which provides fantasy managers with a sense of reassurance when it comes to his overall value.

Won't play Monday Daniels (rest) has been ruled out for Monday's preseason game against the Thunder, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Impact Daniels and most of Atlanta's regulars will rest during the Hawks' penultimate preseason contest. He tallied 13 points (6-16 FG, 1-3 3Pt), 11 rebounds, an assist and a steal across 21 minutes in Thursday's 123-116 preseason win over the Spurs but struggled with his shot against the Pacers on Saturday.

Posts double-double in preseason win Daniels tallied 13 points (6-16 FG, 1-3 3Pt), 11 rebounds, an assist and a steal across 21 minutes in Thursday's 123-116 preseason win over the Spurs.

Impact Daniels was particularly active on the glass, collecting a game-high 11 rebounds, including six offensive boards, to secure a double-double despite an inefficient shooting performance. However, his ability to contribute without relying exclusively on scoring remains a significant part of his fantasy appeal. Daniels will open the season in a starting role in the Hawks' backcourt, where his three-point shooting, defensive contributions and elite rebounding ability will make him a valuable fantasy asset across most formats.

Quiet in preseason opener Daniels finished with six points (2-6 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 2-5 FT), four rebounds and two assists in 18 minutes during Monday's preseason loss to the Grizzlies.

Impact Daniels struggled from both three-point range and the charity stripe before sitting out the second half along with most of Atlanta's starters. Despite the quiet opener, Daniels should continue filling a prominent two-way role for the Hawks this season.

Impact Daniels remained highly productive across the board in 2025-26, averaging 11.9 points, 6.8 rebounds, 5.9 assists and 2.0 steals in 33.2 minutes across 76 regular-season appearances, but he connected on just 18.8 percent of his 1.5 three-point attempts per game. Despite the lack of perimeter shooting, Daniels shot 51.7 percent overall and earned a spot on the All-Defensive Second Team, and Atlanta's continued confidence in his offensive development is encouraging heading into 2026-27.
