It is the same injury and timeline that was placed on Hawks’ forward John Collins, who remains sidelined. This timeline backups a report from Shams Charania earlier in the day that stated the guard would miss...

Photo by Dustin Satloff/ The Atlanta Hawks are back on the road on Wednesday evening, when they will take on the New York Knicks in Madison Square Garden. The Hawks will be looking to bounce back from a Monday night loss in State Farm Arena to the Oklahoma City Thunder. Trae Young playing in The Garden has been an event ever since the Hawks’ playoff series vs. the Knicks during the 2021 playoffs. With the recent locker room turmoil, Young could use a big performance in this spot to get things back rolling in the right direction. The star guard shot just 6-of-19 from...

Photo by Kevin C. Cox/ Not a great performance. The Atlanta Hawks took on the Oklahoma City Thunder on Monday evening, looking for a third straight win. Things did not come together for that to happen unfortunately, as the Thunder were the better team in the second half on the way to a 121-114 win over the Hawks. Before the game, there was a bit of a scary moment for all of those who enjoy Hawks basketball and basketball as a whole. Hawks play-by-play commentator Bob Rathbun had a medical event while on air in the pregame, and appears to be feeling better after losing...

Photo by Scott Cunningham/NBAE via No Trae Young. No De’Andre Hunter. No John Collins. No problem. The Atlanta Hawks and Denver Nuggets received very different news just before tip-off on Friday night in State Farm Arena. Both Trae Young and Jamal Murray were listed as questionable in the lead up to this matchup. However, the Hawks’ star guard was unable to play tonight – or even join the team in the arena – while the Nuggets’ star guard was cleared to play for the visitors. With John Collins, De’Andre Hunter, and others already out for Atlanta, it seemed...
