Mouhamed Gueye News, Rumors, Updates - Atlanta Hawks

Cleared to play Sunday Gueye (shoulder) is available for Sunday's game against Miami, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Impact Gueye was initially tagged as questionable due to right shoulder inflammation, but the third-year pro has been given the green light to play in Sunday's regular-season finale. He's averaging 15.3 minutes per game this season but should operate in an expanded role against the Heat due to the absences of Onyeka Okongwu (finger), Jonathan Kuminga (knee) and Jalen Johnson (rest).

May not play against Miami Gueye is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Heat due to right shoulder inflammation.

Impact The Hawks are resting several key players for Sunday's regular-season finale, including Onyeka Okongwu (finger), Jalen Johnson (rest) and Jonathan Kuminga (knee). Gueye was slated to take on an elevated role, but his status is now in jeopardy due to his injury. If he's unable to play against the Heat, then more minutes would be available for Tony Bradley, Christian Koloko and Asa Newell.

Won't start Monday Gueye won't start Monday's game against the Celtics.

Impact With Onyeka Okongwu (finger) and Dyson Daniels (toe) back in action, Gueye will slide to the second unit. He has averaged just 10.0 minutes per game while shooting 12.5 percent from the field over his last five appearances off the bench.

Starting Saturday Gueye will start Saturday's game against the Kings, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Impact With Dyson Daniels (toe) sidelined for the second leg of this back-to-back, Gueye will step into the starting five. As a starter this season (seven games), the 23-year-old power forward has averaged 10.9 points, 6.9 rebounds, 2.9 assists, 1.7 steals and 1.3 blocks in 27.3 minutes per contest.

MARCH 28 • ROTOWIRE

Not starting Wednesday Gueye will come off the bench for Wednesday's game against the Pistons.

Impact Gueye made back-to-back starts due to the absence of Jalen Johnson, but with Johnson back in action Wednesday, he'll return to a reserve role. In 61 appearances off the bench this season, Gueye is averaging 3.9 points and 3.3 rebounds across 14.2 minutes.

MARCH 25 • ROTOWIRE

Double-doubles in spot start Gueye closed with 16 points (6-6 FG, 4-4 3Pt), 10 rebounds, two assists and three blocks over 26 minutes during Saturday's 126-110 victory over Golden State.

Impact Gueye made his sixth start of the season Saturday (and first since Jan. 31) due to the absence of Jalen Johnson (shoulder). The former took advantage of the opportunity, leading the Hawks in rebounds en route to his third double-double of the season. Gueye should remain in Atlanta's starting lineup if Johnson is not cleared to play against Memphis on Monday.

Starting Saturday Gueye is part of the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Warriors, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Impact Jalen Johnson (shoulder) will miss his first game of the season, which will open up a spot in the starting lineup for Gueye. In five starts this season, Gueye is averaging 11.4 points, 6.8 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 2.0 steals and 1.2 blocks across 28.6.

MARCH 21 • ROTOWIRE

Drops out of rotation Gueye (coach's decision) went unused off the bench Wednesday in the Hawks' 135-120 win over the Mavericks.

Impact Gueye had played at least four minutes in each of the Hawks' last 14 games, but with Atlanta having all of its key players available Wednesday, the third-year big man ended up dropping out of the rotation. He'll likely need at least one of Onyeka Okongwu, Jalen Johnson, Jonathan Kuminga or Jock Landale to miss time before recapturing a meaningful role off the bench.

MARCH 19 • ROTOWIRE

Grabs 11 boards in win Gueye produced six points (2-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 11 rebounds, one assist and two steals over 18 minutes during Tuesday's 119-98 victory over Washington.

Impact Gueye moved into the starting lineup for the second half, replacing Jalen Johnson, who was ruled out after just seven minutes due to a hip injury. Gueye subsequently grabbed double-digit boards for the first time in his past 21 games, putting him on the radar as a streaming consideration, should Johnson be forced to miss additional time.

Impact Gueye's productive night off the bench came to an abrupt end after he and Naz Reid were involved in a heated scuffle at the 11:52 mark of the fourth quarter, resulting in both players being ejected. Onyeka Okongwu, Jock Landale and Asa Newell will handle the post minutes the rest of the way Monday.

FEBRUARY 10 • ROTOWIRE

Drops out of rotation Saturday Gueye (coach's decision) went unused off the bench Saturday in the Hawks' 126-119 loss to the Hornets.

Impact The second-year big man had appeared in each of the Hawks' last 17 games, but he saw that streak come to an end Saturday while head coach Quin Snyder went with Jock Landale and Asa Newell as the reserve options in the frontcourt as starting center Onyeka Okongwu (dental fracture) made his return from a four-game absence. While Gueye could supplant Newell as the team's preferred backup option at power forward in future games, the eventual return of Jonathan Kuminga (knee) at some point after the All-Star break will likely leave both Gueye and Newell outside of the rotation when Atlanta is at full strength.

FEBRUARY 8 • ROTOWIRE

Back to bench Tuesday Gueye is not in the Hawks' starting lineup against the Heat on Tuesday, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Impact Gueye made his fifth start of the season Saturday the Hawks 129-124 loss to the Pacers, when he logged 15 points, four rebounds, three steals and one block over 32 minutes. Even with Onyeka Okongwu (mouth) not playing Tuesday, Gueye will revert to a bench role while Christian Koloko enters Atlanta's starting lineup.

FEBRUARY 4 • ROTOWIRE

Goes for 15 points and three steals Gueye logged 15 points (4-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 7-9 FT), four rebounds, one block and three steals across 32 minutes during Saturday's 129-124 loss to the Pacers.

Impact Gueye turned in a solid two-way performance, scoring at least 15 points for just the second time this season, while also matching his season-high with four combined steals and blocks. With Onyeka Okongwu (mouth) set to miss at least another game, Gueye is someone to consider for streaming purposes, specifically for those in need of cheap defensive stats.

FEBRUARY 1 • ROTOWIRE

Gets starting nod Gueye will start Saturday's game against Indiana, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Impact Gueye will replace Christian Koloko in the first unit with Onyeka Okongwu (dental) out once again. Gueye is worth a look as a short-term streaming option with this news.

Available to play Gueye (ankle) is available for Thursday's game in Portland, Kevin Chouinard of the Hawks' official site reports.

Impact Gueye should be more involved in the rotation with Kristaps Porzingis (Achilles) out again, so he's on the radar as a potential deep league streamer if you need some defensive stats. Over the past four games, Gueye has posted averages of 5.0 points, 5.5 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 2.3 steals in 24.2 minutes per contest.

JANUARY 16 • ROTOWIRE

Upgraded to probable Gueye is probable for Thursday's game against Portland due to a right ankle sprain.

Impact With Kristaps Porzingis (Achilles) ruled out, Gueye is in position to see fairly decent run Thursday. Gueye has logged at least 19 minutes in four consecutive games, and a similar workload appears to be in store against the Trail Blazers.

JANUARY 15 • ROTOWIRE

Iffy for Thursday Gueye (ankle) is questionable for Thursday's game against Portland.

Impact Gueye is managing a right lateral ankle sprain that puts his availability for Thursday in question. Primarily a reserve this season, the big man has seen solid playing time recently, averaging 24.0 minutes, 5.0 points, 5.5 rebounds, 2.3 steals and 1.8 assists over the past four games. With Kristaps Porzingis (Achilles) already ruled out, Gueye's potential absence would leave Atlanta thin in the frontcourt.

JANUARY 15 • ROTOWIRE

Reverting to bench Friday Gueye is not in the Hawks' starting lineup against the Nuggets on Friday, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Impact Gueye made his fourth start of the season Wednesday against the Pelicans, finishing with 10 points, 11 rebounds, six assists, four steals and two blocks over 31 minutes. Despite the impressive stat line, the third-year pro will revert to a bench role Friday due to the return of Onyeka Okongwu, though Gueye should still have a sizeable reserve role in the absence of Kristaps Porzingis (Achilles).

JANUARY 10 • ROTOWIRE

Monster line in win Gueye supplied 10 points (3-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), 11 rebounds, six assists, two blocks and four steals over 31 minutes during Wednesday's 117-100 win over the Pelicans.

Impact With Onyeka Okongwu (illness) sidelined Wednesday, the Hawks let Gueye loose with the starters and he delivered and more. He posted his second double-double of the season and set a new career-high mark in steals (4). Kristaps Porzingis is likely to have reduced workloads going forward, so Gueye could be able to build some momentum from this eruption.
