Injury report

Atlanta Hawks

  • Mouhamed GueyeOut· back Dec 12Report updated ·
    Report note

    Injury/Illness - Left Foot Fracture (2026-11-13, ATL@CHI). Prior reporting (2026-11-13): Gueye (foot) is ready to begin on-court activities and will be re-evaluated in four weeks, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports. The team stated in July that the big man would remain sidelined for the next 3-to-4 months after undergoing surgery to repair a fractured left foot, and he's continuing to make progress in his rehab. A timetable for Gueye's 2026-27 debut has yet to be established, thought a date could come into focus following his next evaluation in mid-December.

  • Kingston FlemingsQuestionable· back Nov 13Report updated ·
    Report note

    Injury/Illness - Lumbar Spasm (2026-11-13, ATL@CHI). Prior reporting (2026-11-12): Flemings (back) is questionable for Friday's game against the Bulls. Flemings is in danger of missing his second contest of the year due to a lumbar spasm. The rookie first-rounder recently leapfrogged CJ McCollum for a starting spot, but the latter would likely rejoin the first unit if the former sits out Friday.

    Injury/Illness - Face Mask (2026-11-13, ATL@CHI).

  • Asa NewellOut· back Nov 20Report updated ·
    Report note

    Injury/Illness - Left Great Toe Hyperextension (2026-11-13, ATL@CHI). Prior reporting (2026-11-12): Newell (toe) has been ruled out for Friday's game against Chicago. Newell will miss a fourth consecutive contest due to a left great toe hyperextension. He can be considered week-to-week until the Hawks provide an update on his progress.

    Report note

    Injury/Illness - Left Knee Inflammation; Non-Surgical Procedure (2026-11-13, ATL@CHI). Prior reporting (2026-11-12): Gilbert (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Bulls. Gilbert continues to deal with lingering knee inflammation and is without a timetable to return. He can be considered week-to-week until the Hawks offer an update on his progress.

  • Henri VeesaarOut· back Jul 1
    Report note

    Injury/Illness - Right ACL Tear (2026-11-13, ATL@CHI). Prior reporting (2026-09-21): Veesaar was diagnosed with a torn right ACL and is expected to miss the 2026-27 season, the Hawks announced Monday. Veesaar suffered the injury during a workout on Sept. 15, and an MRI confirmed the diagnosis. The No. 52 overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft, Veesaar was expected to spend a lot of time with Atlanta's G League affiliate this season. Previously reported out for season.

  • Evan MobleyOut· back Nov 14Report updated ·
    Report note

    Injury/Illness - Left Great Toe - Sprain (2026-11-13, CLE@MIA). Prior reporting (2026-11-12): Mobley (toe) is out for Friday's game against the Heat. The star big man took a hard fall late in Wednesday's win over the Knicks, and he's missing his first contest of the season Friday with a sprained toe. With Mobley sidelined, Jaylon Tyson, Meleek Thomas and Mario Hezonja are each viable streaming options.

  • Sam MerrillOut· back Nov 16Report updated ·
    Report note

    Injury/Illness - Right Elbow Injury Management (2026-11-13, CLE@MIA). Prior reporting (2026-11-10): Merrill (elbow) is listed as out for Wednesday's game against the Knicks. Merrill has battled a lingering elbow issue since the preseason. He will now miss a third consecutive contest, with his next opportunity to suit up coming Friday in Miami. While Merrill is sidelined, Craig Porter, Meleek Thomas and Tyrese Proctor should see more minutes.
