Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter has signed a four-year extension with the organization. It came down to the wire as the two sides had until Monday evening to come to an agreement on Hunter's rookie scale extension. The 24-year-old will receive a four-year deal worth $95 million, which could end up being a bargain for Atlanta. Hunter has been solid when healthy, but keeping him on the court has been the issue. He played in 23 games in 2020, but made it up to 53 games last season. He has a great shot at exceeding his ADP, assuming he can stay on the court. Hunter has been a popular late-round selection in fantasy drafts. He has the potential, but now he needs to put it all together.

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter has been reportedly discussing a long-term extension with the organization. However, it sounds like the two sides are roughly $20 million apart on the terms of a four-year extension. To be fair, it's tough to blame the Hawks for being cautious here. Hunter continues to be plagued by injuries but normally looks above-average when he's healthy. Sadly, the Hawks haven't been able to see enough of a healthy Hunter of late. During his final game, Hunter dropped 35 points, so he could be using that as part of his leverage. There is certainly potential here, but the Hawks might want to see more from Hunter before giving him a huge extension. It's possible that Hunter becomes a trade candidate this upcoming season, assuming the two sides can't agree on a deal.

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter could be headed for a massive contract at some point in the near future. According to HoopsHype's Michael Scotto, executives around the NBA have gotten the sense that the Hawks view Hunter as a core piece of their future. These executives believe that due to this fact, Hunter could land a long-term deal with an annual salary in the high teens or close to $20 million. The 24-year-old has certainly proven to be a valuable two-way player for the Hawks. Last year in his third NBA season, he logged 29.8 minutes per contest and contributed 13.4 points per game while shooting 44.2% from the field.

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter could potentially receive a long-term extension offer this offseason. The young forward has showed plenty of potential, but injuries continue to hold him back. Hunter went off for a career-high 35 points during his last game in the postseason. The upside is certainly there, but the concern of injury could hinder a long term deal. It sounds like the Hawks are willing to bank on his development, but could move Hunter in a trade, assuming someone offers an All-Star player.

Atlanta Hawks small forward De'Andre Hunter had a strong game in a losing effort against the Miami Heat in Game 4. He shot 9-for-13 from the field in the game, connecting on four of his six three-point attempts. He racked up a team-high 24 points to go along with three rebounds and one assist. Hunter has had a nice series so far, averaging 17.8 points and 2.3 three-pointers per game while shooting 59.5% from the floor. We'll see what he can put together as the team faces elimination in Tuesday's Game 5.

Atlanta Hawks small forward De'Andre Hunter helped the team clinch a 132-103 victory over the Charlotte Hornets on Wednesday. He shot 9-for-16 from the field and 2-for-2 from the line in the game while scoring 22 points, second on the team behind star point guard Trae Young. Hunter also added seven rebounds, two assists and two three-pointers in the game. The third-year pro averaged 13.4 points per game this year, but he's now scored 20-plus points in three of his last five games. Next up for Hunter and the Hawks is a matchup against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Friday. Hunter struggled the last time he faced the Cavaliers in late March, shooting just 2-for-10 from the field while scoring only five points.

Atlanta Hawks guard/forward De'Andre Hunter (knee) has been cleared to play in Wednesday night's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Hunter was forced to sit out the team's previous game on Monday due to a right knee injury. Meanwhile, Danilo Gallinari (elbow) will remain sidelined for Wednesday's game. Hunter should see some extra usage on offense with Gallo out. Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot, who started on Monday, will be pushed to the bench for Wednesday's game. Hunter is averaging 14.9 points, 1.5 three-pointers and 1.1 steals per game so far in March.

Atlanta Hawks forwards Danilo Gallinari (elbow) and De'Andre Hunter (knee) are both listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Both players were forced to miss the team's previous game on Monday with their respective injuries. In Monday's game, we saw Bogdan Bogdanovic (29 points) and Kevin Huerter (22 points) step their games up. We also saw increased minutes for Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot and Jalen Johnson (head), the latter of whom is also questionable for Wednesday. TLC scored 13 points and swiped two steals on Monday. He could be a streaming option or a DFS play if all three questionable players sit.

The Atlanta Hawks have made guard/forward De'Andre Hunter (knee) a late scratch for Monday night's game against the Indiana Pacers. Hunter is dealing with right knee soreness. The team will also be without Danilo Gallinari (elbow) for the game. Meanwhile, guard Bogdan Bogdanovic (knee) has been given the green light to play through a knee injury. Bogdanovic and Kevin Huerter could be in line for big nights as the team's primary wing scorers. We should also see Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot play a strong supporting role. Rookie Jalen Johnson has a chance to see some minutes off the bench as well.

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (ankle) is available for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Hunter has been playing well lately, so the Hawks are certainly glad to have him available for this game. Fantasy managers should check the waiver wire and see if Hunter is still available because he's worth snagging right now. Bogdan Bogdanovic should come off the bench on Sunday with Hunter active. Despite that, Bogdanovic has been shooting well recently, so playing with the second unit shouldn't impact his fantasy value.

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (back) will be available for Friday's game against the Boston Celtics. He was listed as questionable coming into this game, but managed to play during their last contest as well. Danilo Gallinari (eye) will be on the court as well during Friday's game. That means, Bogdan Bogdanovic and Lou Williams could lose some streaming and DFS appeal. However, Bogdanovic should be able to continue having success, but it depends on how many minutes he plays on Friday. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect Hunter or Gallinari to be limited for this game.

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (back) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Boston Celtics. He was listed as questionable on Wednesday due to back discomfort, but played in the contest. Bogdan Bogdanovic would likely be asked to slide into the starting five, assuming Hunter sits out. He'd have more streaming appeal and DFS value given extended minutes. Also, Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot could see more minutes, but wouldn't have much fantasy value. However, Hunter played last game, so it seems likely he'd be able to suit up again. The team is likely going to wait until pregame warmups before making a final decision.

Atlanta Hawks small forward De'Andre Hunter (wrist) has been given the green light to take the floor for Friday's game against Denver. Hunter returns from a one-game absence, looking to find an offensive rhythm after erratic performances over the last week. Having averaged 4.8 rebounds per game last season, Hunter has nabbed at least four boards just twice across his first 10 contests. With all major stat categories trending in the wrong direction from last year, Hunter can likely remain on the waiver wire while the Hawks iron out their early rotations.

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (wrist) is in danger of missing Friday's game against the Denver Nuggets. It sounds like Hunter is going to be a game-time decision for this contest, according to head coach Nate McMillan. The young forward is dealing with a right wrist strain that prevented him from playing on Tuesday. Solomon Hill and Cam Reddish would be asked to pick up the slack, assuming Hunter sits out. Reddish is the better fantasy option between the two and could have some streaming appeal for Friday.

Atlanta Hawks shooting guard Bogdan Bogdanovic (ankle) and small forward De'Andre Hunter (wrist) have been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Jazz. Bogdanovic's absence marks his first of the year, while Hunter will be down for the second time in 2021-22. With the team severely short-handed on the wing, Kevin Huerter and Cam Reddish stand to see elevated roles, while Trae Young should be viewed as an upside DFS option. The next chance that Bogdanovic and Hunter will have to return to action comes Friday vs. Denver.

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (wrist) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Utah Jazz. The Hawks are in their second game of a back-to-back set, so it wouldn't be shocking to see them be cautious with their players. That being said, Cam Reddish and Kevin Huerter would likely benefit the most from the absence of Hunter. Huerter has more upside and would be an intriguing DFS option with extended playing time. Danilo Gallinari could see more minutes as well, so fantasy managers should check back closer to game time.

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter was enduring a slow start to the season, but it all turned around in a 117-108 loss to the Brooklyn Nets. On Wednesday, Hunter played 33 minutes and recorded 26 points on 10-for-11 shooting with two rebounds, a steal, a block, and six threes. The 26 points doubled his season-high, but it was a relatively empty box score after that. The 10-for-11 shooting and 6-for-6 from three performances were pleasant outlier boosts to the ratio categories, but fantasy managers are still missing the help they need in Hunter's rebounding and assist numbers. Hopefully, this new season-high in points will re-engage him in the Atlanta offense and be the first drop in a statistical waterfall. Hunter and the Hawks will try to immediately rebound (in more ways than one) against the Utah Jazz on Thursday.

The Atlanta Hawks will have two of their top forwards on the floor for Wednesday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. Both De'Andre Hunter and Danilo Gallinari (shoulder) will be active for the game. Hunter missed the team's last game due to a non-COVID illness. Gallinari, meanwhile, has yet to play this season as he's been nursing a sore left shoulder. Hunter will likely be in the starting lineup, while Gallinari figures to come off the bench and potentially see limited minutes as he works his way back. Kevin Huerter, Cam Reddish and Solomon Hill could each see their playing time decrease with Hunter and Gallinari back.

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (illness) was able to get through Tuesday's practice, according to Nate McMillan. The young forward sat out during Monday's contest due to a non-COVID related illness. It appears Hunter will travel with the team for their matchup against the New Orleans Pelicans on Wednesday. It sounds like the Hawks plan to have Hunter return for that game, but fantasy managers might have to wait and see.

Atlanta Hawks small forward De'Andre Hunter has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Detroit Pistons. He is dealing with a non-COVID illness. Expect to see Cam Reddish take Hunter's spot in the starting rotation. Reddish, who is coming off of a 19-point game, is an intriguing target for DFS on Monday. Solomon Hill and Kevin Huerter should also see increased playing time with Hunter out. Hunter has shot just 37% from the field through two games this year while averaging 11.5 points and 3.0 rebounds per game.
