Atlanta Hawks em Indiana Pacers

Gueye will be re-evaluated by medical staff in 3-to-4 months, which means he'll miss all of training camp and preseason and likely the start of the 2026-27 regular season. It's a brutal blow for the fourth-year big man, given that the Hawks used the No. 23 overall pick of the 2026 NBA Draft to select St. John's product Zuby Ejiofor. Gueye's absence means Ejiofor will have more opportunities in the preseason, and the rookie could establish a key role off the bench behind Onyeka Okongwu and projected backup center Jock Landale (ankle).

Dennis will miss a third consecutive contest due to a right Achilles issue. He appeared in just one Las Vegas Summer League game, posting 10 points, three assists, three steals and two rebounds in 16 minutes during the July 9 win over the Spurs.

A hip injury cost Gilbert his final three games in Las Vegas. In his one appearance for the Hawks at Summer League, he finished with 10 points, five rebounds, five assists and two steals in 20 minutes off the bench.

Shoulder

It's unclear why McConnell is sitting out the scrimmage. The veteran point guard can be considered questionable for Wednesday's preseason opener against the Timberwolves until the Pacers offer an update on his status.

It's unclear why the 28-year-old isn't participating in Sunday's scrimmage, and he's joined by T.J. McConnell (undisclosed), Larry Nance (hamstring) and Johnny Furphy (knee) on the sidelines. Jackson can be considered questionable for Wednesday's preseason opener against Minnesota until further notice.

Knee

Nance has been limited in training camp thus far due to a hamstring injury, though there's optimism he'll be a full participant soon, per East. The veteran big man can be considered questionable for Wednesday's preseason opener against Minnesota until more information comes to light.
