Jalen Johnson and Nickeil Alexander-Walker ruled out of Hawks' game vs. Wizards

All-Star Jalen Johnson and guard Nickeil Alexander-Walker have been ruled out of the Hawks' game against the Wizards

Won't play Thursday Alexander-Walker (foot) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Wizards, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Impact Jalen Johnson (hip) will join Alexander-Walker on the sidelines for Thursday's game, so Jonathan Kuminga might be moving into the starting lineup and a prominent role Thursday evening. CJ McCollum also figures to be very busy on offense and Corey Kispert could see an uptick in minutes. For now, Alexander-Walker should be considered questionable for Sunday's meeting with the Trail Blazers.

Nursing foot injury Alexander-Walker is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Wizards due to a left foot sprain, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Impact Alexander-Walker may have picked up the injury during Atlanta's 119-98 win over Washington, which puts him in jeopardy of being sidelined for Thursday's rematch. Jalen Johnson (hip) and Zaccharie Risacher (hip) are both also listed as questionable, so there are opportunities for more playing time for Corey Kispert, Gabe Vincent and Jonathan Kuminga, depending on who ends up being available.

Scores 16 points with two steals Alexander-Walker provided 16 points (4-10 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 5-5 FT), three rebounds, five assists and two steals across 25 minutes during Tuesday's 119-98 win over the Wizards.

Impact Alexander-Walker has been struggling with his shot a bit over the past two games, going 8-for-22 from the floor, but he's been perfect at the line over that two-game stretch. The seven-year swingman has, at times, struggled with efficiency this season, but the counting stats have been solid.

Drops 20 points in defeat Alexander-Walker finished Friday's 128-97 loss to the Heat with 20 points (8-18 FG, 4-9 3Pt), three rebounds and three assists in 37 minutes.

Impact After totaling 24 points on 25.0 percent shooting from the field over his previous two appearances, Alexander-Walker was much more efficient Friday en route to his third 20-plus-point performance of the month. The 27-year-old swingman has struggled with efficiency throughout February, though he should continue to see a heavy workload. He'll look to remain effective in Sunday's game against the Nets.

Impact Despite the arrival of CJ McCollum in Atlanta, Alexander-Walker continues to hold down a spot in the starting lineup and has scored at least 19 points in six straight contests. Alexander-Walker is making it difficult for the Hawks to consider moving him to a bench role, with the 27-year-old swingman averaging 20.8 points, 4.0 assists, 3.2 rebounds and 1.7 steals in 33.3 minutes per tilt in his last six games.
