Hawks’ Johnson worth a fantasy roster spot

Rotoworld Player News

Saddiq Bey

ATL Small Forward #41

Saddiq Bey shined on Wednesday with 21 points (7-of-13 FGs), seven rebounds, one assist, one steal and three 3-pointers against Brooklyn.

Bey has been a solid source of points and 3-pointers as the Hawks’ starting power forward with Jalen Johnson sidelined. However, this was his best game of the year as he set a new season-high with 21 points. Bey currently ranks in the top-100 in 9-cat scoring, but he has been in the top-75 over the past two weeks. With Johnson still set to miss a few more weeks, Bey should continue to provide excellent fantasy value for the managers that have him rostered. His production will take a hit when Johnson returns, but he will still be worth rostering.
Dejounte Murray

ATL Point Guard #5

Dejounte Murray posted a full line on Wednesday with 13 points (6-of-16 FGs), 10 rebounds, nine assists, one steal and one triple against the Nets.

Though it wasn’t a dominant night scoring or shooting the ball for him, Murray came close to recording his first triple-double of the season. However, he was still able to set a season-high for rebounding. It was nice to see Murray have a game like this, since his rebounds and assists have dropped yet again this season after taking a massive drop in his first season with the Hawks. Dejounte has still been able to provide fourth round value this season, but until he starts scoring more consistently, he won’t be able to improve on that. We’ll see if he can keep up this well-rounded production against the 76ers on Friday.
Trae Young

ATL Point Guard #11

Trae Young led the Hawks with 30 points (11-of-24 FGs), one rebound, nine assists, two blocks, three 3-pointers and five turnovers in a 114-113 loss to Brooklyn on Wednesday.

For just the second time this season, Trae didn’t record a steal. However, he was able to make up for that with his first two blocks of the season, and he scored at least 30 points for the third straight game. Young continues to put up numbers that will make managers forgive him for his slow start to the season. He has raised his 9-cat value to the top-30, and it could be higher if his free throw percentage hasn’t suffered in recent weeks. He is one of the best free throw shooters in the league, but he has shot 78.9% over the past two weeks. When that rises to his typical elite percentage, his value will skyrocket.
Trae Young

ATL Point Guard #11

Trae Young led the Hawks with 32 points (13-of-28 FGs), two rebounds, 12 assists, two steals and five triples in a 132-121 loss to Milwaukee on Saturday.

Young continued his scoring pace on Saturday and scored at least 30 points for the sixth time this season, five of which have come in his last seven games. He also recorded his third straight double-double and his 12th of the season. He shot just under 50% from the field, and while that will still help raise his percentage on the season, it could have been higher if he didn’t miss some tough shots at the end of the game. Trae is playing much better than he did at the start of the season, and he has been in the top ten in 9-cat leagues over the past two weeks.
Clint Capela

ATL Center #15

Clint Capela recorded a double-double on Saturday with 10 points (4-of-13 FGs), 17 rebounds, four assists, one steal and three blocks against the Bucks.

Though his field goal percentage was far below his usual mark in this game, Capela was still able to dominate with his rebounding and shot-blocking and ended up setting a new season-high for rebounds. While this doesn’t matter much for fantasy managers, a lot of his rebounds came from him attempting to tip in his own misses, which ended up impacting his field goal percentage. It was a bit of a double-edged sword, but it did allow him to post a full line statistically. Most of his value will continue to come from traditional center stats, though he isn’t producing at the same rate that he has for most of his career.
Dejounte Murray

ATL Point Guard #5

Dejounte Murray lit up the Spurs with 24 points (10-of-21 FGs), three rebounds, two assists, five steals and two triples on Thursday.

When Dejounte made his return to San Antonio last season, he posted a 22/6/8 line, but they weren’t able to secure a win against his former team. With a much better performance from Trae Young this time around (45 points instead of nine), Murray was able to get a win in the city that he started his NBA career in. He was also able to set a new season-high with five steals. Murray has had some poor offensive performances lately, so it was encouraging for him to have a solid night in this one. It just means a little more for him that he did it against his former team.
Trae Young

ATL Point Guard #11

Trae Young recorded a double-double on Thursday with 45 points (15-of-29 FGs, 13-of-16 FTs), four rebounds, 14 assists, two steals and two 3-pointers in a 137-135 win over San Antonio.

Young got off to a slow start in this game and had just 12 points on 4-of-13 shooting at halftime. However, he found his groove in the third quarter and scored 20 points on 8-of-11 shooting in the period alone. He added 13 more in the fourth quarter and took a charge at the end of the game to seal the win for Atlanta. The last four 45-point, 14-assist performances in the NBA have all come from Trae. This was also his 63rd game with at least 30 points and 10 assists, which is seventh in NBA history. The Hawks PR account had some fun with this performance from Trae, and fantasy managers likely did too. Despite his slow shooting start, Young has crept into the top-30 in 9-cat value this season.
Clint Capela

ATL Center #15

Clint Capela provided solid value on Tuesday with 14 points (6-of-10 FGs), nine rebounds, two steals and two blocks in 22 minutes against the Cavs.

Capela’s value in 9-cat leagues has been excellent throughout his career, but it has dipped this year. He is averaging less than 10 rebounds per game for the first time since the 2016-17 season and his points are the lowest they’ve been since the year before that. That correlates directly to him playing just 24.3 minutes per game. Quin Snyder has made this a minutes split between Capela and Onyeka Okongwu that is too even for either to provide great value. They’ve both been top-100 players, but their production is capped by the lack of minutes. Barring a deal at the deadline, that may be the reality of the Hawks’ center room this season.
De'Andre Hunter

ATL Small Forward #12

De’Andre Hunter led the Hawks with 18 points (5-of-12 FGs), four rebounds, two assists and one triple against the Cavaliers on Tuesday.

Hunter exited this game briefly with a hand injury just before halftime, but he came back out to start the second half without an official injury diagnosis. It is worth monitoring, but it didn’t hold him out of this game, so it shouldn’t be an issue moving forward. The injury was bad timing, as it came right after Hunter scored six consecutive points. He was having a solid first half, but he wasn’t able to maintain that level of production after the break. Hunter has strung together some really solid performances lately, and he’ll look to keep it going against the Spurs on Thursday.
Trae Young

ATL Point Guard #11

Trae Young recorded a double-double on Tuesday with 13 points (3-of-14 FGs), one rebound, 10 assists, one steal and two 3-pointers in a 128-105 loss to Cleveland.

After a string of really solid performances, Young had a poor showing on Tuesday. Hopefully this was just a bad game and he can get back on track against the Spurs on Thursday. However, the alternate scenario of the last four games just being a hot streak is very possible, and the Trae that has an abysmal shooting percentage this year is our reality. Still, managers can consistently rely on Young for assists and steals. He is second in the league in assists behind Tyrese Haliburton, and he is tied for 10th in steals. The shot hasn’t been there for him often this year, but he has still been valuable for fantasy managers that spent an early pick on him.
