Jock Landale News, Rumors, Updates - Atlanta Hawks

Making most of limited minutes Landale accumulated nine points (3-4 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-3 FT), five rebounds, four assists and one block over 17 minutes during Sunday's 112-104 victory over the Kings.

Impact Landale continues to make the most of the limited minutes he has available, and he made his presence felt on both ends of the court during Sunday's win. Given that Alperen Sengun departed the game with a right lower-leg injury that forced him to leave the game in a wheelchair, Landale could be in line for a sizable uptick in his fantasy upside, especially if he can show the same versatility he's evidenced in recent outings but over a more prolonged stretch.

Good to go Landale (wrist) is available for Sunday's game against the Timberwolves, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Impact Landale found himself on the injury report ahead of Sunday's game due to a right wrist bruise, but he will be able to play through it. The 28-year-old pro has not appeared in the last three games but could crack the rotation in a limited fashion Sunday to match up with Minnesota's size.

Iffy for Sunday Landale is questionable for Sunday's game against the Timberwolves due to a right wrist bruise.

Impact Landale is a sporadic part of the rotation, so his potential absence shouldn't impact fantasy hoops. If he's sidelined, Boban Marjanovic may crack the rotation for a few minutes to combat Minnesota's frontcourt size.

Back in rotation Wednesday Landale supplied five points (2-4 FG, 1-2 FT) and five rebounds across 12 minutes during Wednesday's 129-113 loss to the Suns.

Impact Landale was back in the rotation after missing the previous two games, logging 12 minutes in the loss. Jabari Smith suffered an ankle injury after only 22 minutes, meaning Landale stepped in as the backup center. If Smith misses more time, Landale could feature a little more over the next few games. He won't play enough to be considered in standard leagues but should at least touch the floor most nights.

DECEMBER 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Just four minutes in loss Landale notched one rebound and one steal over four minutes during Monday's 135-130 overtime loss to Cleveland.

Impact Landale failed to play more than 10 minutes for the eighth straight game, continuing his disappointing season. To this point, he is averaging just 8.5 minutes per contest, during which time he is doing very little to make us think he will be fantasy-relevant at all this season.

DECEMBER 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Available Monday Landale is not listed on the injury report ahead of Monday's game against the Spurs.

Impact Landale missed the last two games due to an illness but will make his return on Monday against San Antonio. Landale doesn't figure to see significant playing time behind Alperen Sengun.

DECEMBER 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Won't face Denver Landale (illness) is out for Friday's game against the Nuggets.

Impact Landale missed Wednesday's game against the Thunder with an illness, and that will keep him sidelined for a second straight contest. Even if he's available, Landale shouldn't play much of a role in fantasy since he's little more than the backup of a high-usage center in Alperen Sengun. Landale's next chance to play will come against the Spurs on Monday.

DECEMBER 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Downgraded to out Landale (illness) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Thunder.

Impact Landale has been downgraded from questionable and will miss his third game of the season due to injury or illness. He's technically the primary backup to Alperen Sengun, but Houston tends to go small with its second unit, meaning Landale's absence shouldn't have a fantasy impact.

DECEMBER 6, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Iffy against OKC Landale is questionable for Wednesday's game versus the Thunder due to an illness.

Impact Landale is averaging 8.5 minutes across his last two appearances, so his absence shouldn't make a significant impact on Houston's rotation. Boban Marjanovic could see minutes as the Rockets' backup center if Landale is ruled out.

DECEMBER 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Modest production in loss Landale finished Friday's 106-100 loss to the Clippers with two points (1-2 FG) and three rebounds across seven minutes.

Impact Landale played double-digit minutes in each of his first four appearances in November but has now been held below 10 minutes in his last three appearances. He's averaged 0.7 points and 2.3 rebounds in 5.3 minutes per game during that time and doesn't have much fantasy upside as long as Alperen Sengun is healthy.

NOVEMBER 18, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Available for Wednesday Landale (concussion) will be available for Wednesday's game against the Hornets, Adam Spolane of Sports Radio 610 reports.

Impact Landale was able to practice Tuesday after missing the past two games. He's expected to reprise his role as the primary backup to Alperen Sengun.

OCTOBER 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Remains sidelined Landale (concussion) won't play in Sunday's game versus the Warriors.

Impact Landale will miss his second straight game Sunday while in concussion protocols. The 28-year-old big man will have extra time to recover ahead of Wednesday's matchup with Charlotte.

OCTOBER 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Suffers concussion Landale is out for Friday's game versus the Spurs while in the league's concussion protocol.

Impact It's unclear when Landale suffered his concussion, but it will keep him out of Friday's contest. Boban Marjanovic will likely serve as the backup center to Alperen Sengun in his absence. Landale's next chance to suit up is Sunday's matchup with Golden State.

OCTOBER 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Plans to play Wednesday Landale (ankle) said he expects to play in Wednesday's preseason contest against the Spurs, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Impact Landale was also expected to play Monday, but he never saw any action. Regardless, it appears the backup big man is getting closer to full strength after dealing with a minor ankle injury to start training camp and should be good to go for the regular season.

OCTOBER 18, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Not playing Thursday Landale won't play Thursday against the Pelicans due to an ankle injury, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Impact Landale didn't re-aggravate the injury, but the Rockets are calling it a "maintenance" procedure, so it shouldn't be anything serious. Landale's next chance to play will come against the Spurs on Monday.

OCTOBER 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Should be healthy for training camp Rockets general manager Rafael Stone said Landale (ankle) will be a full participant in training camp at the end of September, Coty M. Davis of SI.com reports.

Impact Landale suffered a left ankle injury while playing for the Australian national team at the FIBA World Cup in mid-August, but as expected, the injury isn't expected to impact his availability for the start of the 2023-24 NBA campaign. The big man is currently able to do some basketball drills, but he hasn't progressed to 5-on-5 work yet. Landale signed a three-year contract with Houston in July and is slated to be the primary backup to Alperen Sengun.

Starting Game 6 Landale will join the first unit for Thursday's Game 6 against the Nuggets.

Impact Landale will replace Deandre Ayton (ribs) in the starting lineup for the win-or-go-home matchup with Denver. The 27-year-old has seen increased playing time in the last three games of the Western Conference Semifinals, averaging 6.3 points and 6.0 rebounds over 19.7 minutes off the bench, and makes for a solid streaming option and value play in daily formats.

Matches season-high 17 points Landale closed with 17 points (8-11 FG, 1-1 FT), six rebounds and three assists across 25 minutes during Friday's 135-127 loss to Sacramento.

Impact Landale got the best of Sacramento's big men, matching his season-high output with 17 points. He's seen double-digit minutes in each of the past five games and is helping hold down the center spot while Deandre Ayton (hip) -- out for the past three games -- remains shelved. Over the past five, Landale has averaged 9.2 points, 4.0 boards and 1.8 assists in 17.6 minutes.

MARCH 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Efficient outing in limited action Landale finished Thursday's 116-113 win over the Magic with eight points (4-6 FG), three rebounds and two assists across 13 minutes.

Impact Over his past two appearances, the talented big man has totaled 20 points (9-12 FG), six rebounds and four assists in 27 minutes, but his role is currently too small to trust on a nightly basis. Across eight March contests, Landale is averaging just 5.9 points, 3.1 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 12.1 minutes per game.

Logs 21 minutes in blowout Landale amassed nine points (3-3 FG, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, one assist and two blocks over 21 minutes during Friday's 125-104 win over Chicago.

Impact Landale had a decent evening Friday, delivering arguably his best performance in more than a month. While it appears as though he has locked up the backup center role, with Deandre Ayton healthy, he typically won't see more than about 16-18 minutes per night. He can have some deeper league appeal for anyone in need of boards and blocks, although that is really the limit of his fantasy appeal.

MARCH 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Coming off bench Friday Landale will come off the bench Friday against the Pacers, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.

Impact Landale got the start for the shorthanded Suns on Thursday against the big frontline of the Hawks, but he'll return to his usual reserve role with Devin Booker (groin) back and the team facing a smaller squad in the Pacers. In his past 17 games coming off the bench, Landale has averaged 7.2 points, 4.7 rebounds and 1.1 assists in 15.0 minutes.
