Asa

Newell

Newell got the starting nod for Atlanta with the typical starters getting a rest night in Game 82. The rookie took advantage of the opportunity and recorded the first double-double of his young career. The Hawks’ first-round pick hasn’t played a significant role for them, but he still has plenty of upside and could take on more minutes in his second season. He likely won’t see the floor much during the playoffs, but he is still worth stashing in dynasty formats.

Johnson is good to go after sitting out Monday’s loss to the Timberwolves. His return will push Asa Newell back to the bench and potentially out of the rotation entirely. Newell should be rostered in dynasty leagues, but that’s it.

Johnson did not play in Monday’s loss to the Timberwolves, with rookie Asa Newell replacing him in the starting lineup. Newell played 25 minutes, finishing with four points and four rebounds. If Johnson remains out, there would not be much to gain from streaming Newell in redraft leagues.

The Hawks are without Dyson Daniels and Jalen Johnson for Monday’s game, opening up two spots in the starting lineup. McCollum and Newell will fill the voids. While the latter is a player of greater interest to dynasty league managers, the former offers greater value in the short term.

Johnson was a late addition to the injury report, and now he will be unavailable for this game against Minnesota. He has been on a tear over his last four games, and Atlanta will have plenty of available usage and minutes. Mouhamed Gueye and Asa Newell should both play larger roles with Johnson sidelined.

Atlanta will be incredibly shorthanded for this game, with Jalen Johnson (calf) and Onyeka Okongwu (mouth) both sidelined. Krejci and Koloko will join the starting group, and there should be extra minutes off the bench available for Mouhamed Gueye and Asa Newell.

Johnson has been ruled out for the second leg of this back-to-back. Atlanta will be incredibly shorthanded for this game with Onyeka Okongwu (mouth) also sidelined. Mouhamed Gueye has shined as a starter in place of Johnson previously, though there should be plenty of minutes for Asa Newell as well.

Porziņģis is set to miss a fifth straight game. Mouhamed Gueye should continue to fill out the backup center minutes, with Asa Newell and the recently-signed Christian Koloko also potentially sprinkling in some minutes. However, Onyeka Okongwu will continue to log most of the minutes at center.

Gueye is dealing with a sprained right ankle. With Kristaps Porziņǵis (Achilles) already out, the Hawks can ill afford to lose another rotation frontcourt player. Asa Newell’s playing time would jump considerably if Gueye can’t play on Thursday.

Thursday’s game will be the fourth that Porzingis has missed due to left Achilles tendinitis. His absence has resulted in additional minutes for Mouhamed Gueye and Asa Newell, but neither has done enough to merit being rostered in most fantasy leagues.
