Plays 20 minutes off bench Forrest accumulated six points (3-5 FG, 0-1 FT), two rebounds, five assists and one steal in 20 minutes during Wednesday's 115-114 loss to the Hornets.

Impact Forrest saw an uptick in playing time for the shorthanded Hawks on Wednesday and posted a relatively well-rounded stat line. Despite his decent performance against Charlotte, Forrest will likely see minimal playing time once Dejounte Murray (quadriceps) is able to return.

Dishes six dimes in defeat Forrest notched two points (1-2 FG), four rebounds and six assists over 22 minutes during Monday's 136-105 loss to the Lakers.

Impact Forrest got a little more run than usual due to the lopsided nature of the score, as his 22 minutes were his most of the campaign. The fourth-year guard wasn't aggressive as a shooter but did manage to finish second on the team with six assists. Forrest's opportunities have increased a bit since Trae Young went down with a finger injury in late February, but the former's production hasn't come closer to warranting fantasy attention.

Used sparingly Friday Forrest registered two points (1-2 FG) and one rebound over eight minutes during Friday's 99-92 win over the Grizzlies.

Impact Forrest continues to play limited minutes off the bench, tallying two points in eight minutes. Despite injuries to a couple of key backcourt pieces, Forrest doesn't appear to be a priority for the coaching staff. At this point, he is not someone to consider, even in deeper leagues.

Atlanta Hawks Waive Patty Mills and Convert Trent Forrest to a Standard Contract Atlanta made the decision to waive Mills and convert Forrest this morning

FEBRUARY 29, 2024 • KANSASCITY.COM

Gets upgraded to standard deal The Hawks plan to convert Forrest from a two-way contract to a standard NBA contract, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

Impact Forrest had been in the midst of his second season on a two-way deal with the Hawks, but after having already been active for the maximum 50 games at the NBA level this season, he wasn't eligible to suit up for Atlanta on his current contract. By upgrading Forrest to a standard contract, he'll be eligible to play again, but it's unclear if the transaction will be made official prior to Thursday's game in Brooklyn. Atlanta is set to waive Patty Mills to open up a spot on the 15-man roster for Forrest, who is averaging 2.0 points, 2.1 assists and 1.3 rebounds in 10.5 minutes per game over 20 appearances for Hawks this season.

Impact Forrest is still able to play in games for the G League's College Park Skyhawks if the Hawks choose to assign him to the affiliate, but he won't be able to suit up for the NBA club unless Atlanta upgrades him from his two-way deal. The 25-year-old hasn't been a regular factor in the rotation this season, appearing in 20 of the 50 games in which he's been active while averaging 2.0 points, 2.1 assists and 1.3 rebounds in 10.5 minutes per contest.

Fails to score in eight minutes Forrest amassed four assists over eight minutes during Friday's 127-121 win over the 76ers.

Impact Forrest moved back into the rotation, failing to score in eight minutes of playing time. Prior to Friday, he had played only once in the past two weeks. The Hawks were without Dejounte Murray due to a back injury, opening up a spot for Forrest. Given he has struggled to be an every-night part of the rotation, managers can safely avoid him in all formats.

Logs 13 minutes in blowout Forrest totaled four points (1-4 FG, 2-4 FT), two rebounds, one assist and one steal in 13 minutes during Saturday's 127-99 loss to Washington.

Impact Forrest played at least 13 minutes for the fifth time in the past six games, yet failed to do anything of note when he was on the floor. The Hawks were embarrassed by the Wizards, affording some additional minutes to their fringe options. Although he has been a consistent part of the rotation over the past two weeks, Forrest holds no sustainable fantasy value.

Impact Forrest hit the game-tying layup while fouled by Emoni Bates and hit the subsequent free throw to give the Hawks the one-point win. He signed a two-way deal with Atlanta on Sept. 12 after playing 23 NBA games with the team last season when he averaged 2.3 points, 1.6 rebounds and 1.7 assists in 12.0 minutes per game. He'll look to carve out a larger role for himself during the preseason and will have his next chance Thursday against the Grizzlies.
