Pours in 32 in Monday's loss Alexander-Walker had 32 points (9-20 FG, 7-16 3Pt, 7-7 FT), six rebounds, six assists, one block and one steal in 39 minutes during Monday's 112-110 loss to the Bucks.

Impact The 27-year-old guard continues to have a breakout campaign, and the Hawks swapping Trae Young (knee) out for CJ McCollum in the backcourt has only solidified his elevated usage. Monday's 32 points were Alexander-Walker's best output since Nov. 30, when he dropped 34 on the 76ers, and it marked the sixth time he's delivered 30-plus points in 43 games. Through 10 contests in January, Alexander-Walker is averaging 21.8 points, 4.7 boards, 4.3 assists, 3.7 threes and 1.5 steals.

Strong campaign continues Alexander-Walker posted 11 points (2-6 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 5-6 FT), six rebounds, seven assists and one steal over 29 minutes during Thursday's 117-101 loss to the Trail Blazers.

Impact Alexander-Walker is enjoying a successful first year in Atlanta so far, and he should continue to do so with Trae Young (knee) now out of the picture altogether. Over his last 10 contests, Alexander-Walker has averaged 20.9 points, 4.3 rebounds, 3.9 assists and 1.5 steals in 33.8 minutes per game.

Logs team-high 26 points in loss Alexander-Walker ended Tuesday's 141-116 loss to the Lakers with 26 points (10-16 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds and three assists over 33 minutes.

Impact Alexander-Walker has found himself in a plum position as Atlanta's starting off-guard, but the newly acquired CJ McCollum is quickly getting familiar with the offense, scoring 25 points during Tuesday's loss. A switch to McCollum in the backcourt may be imminent, and the eventual move will have an adverse effect on Alexander-Walker and Dyson Daniels. The production of both players warrants close attention, as McCollum is worked in, because one of them will be removed from the first unit in the looming scenario.
