Kristaps Porzingis

ATL Power Forward #8

14dKristaps Porziņģis (illness) said during an interview on Monday that he feels “great” after struggling with illness during this past spring’s playoffs.

Porziņģis was sidelined by an illness late in the regular season and never seemed to get back on track physically. The 7-foot-2 forward/center struggled with fatigue, which limited his playing time as the Celtics were ultimately eliminated in the second round. Traded to the Hawks just before the draft, Porziņģis said he did not do much during June, and the time off has been beneficial. Porziņģis is preparing to represent Latvia at FIBA EuroBasket, which begins in late August. A healthy Porziņģis can be an excellent fantasy asset next season, playing off of Trae Young and sharing the frontcourt with Jalen Johnson and Onyeka Okongwu. However, his medical history will likely impact his value in fantasy drafts.

Adam Flagler

FA Point Guard #14

23dAdam Flagler finished Sunday’s loss to the Celtics with 13 points (5-of-14 FGs, 1-of-1 FTs), three rebounds, three assists and two three-pointers.

After spending two seasons with the Thunder as a two-way contract player, Flagler played with the Hawks in Las Vegas as an unrestricted free agent. The former Baylor guard did not have his best day shooting the basketball, and that was the story of his week-plus with the Hawks’ summer league outfit. Flagler entered Sunday shooting 34.3 percent from the field and 31.6 percent from beyond the arc. With Atlanta having filled all three of its two-way contract slots, Flagler may have to look elsewhere for an NBA opportunity next season.

Keaton Wallace

ATL Shooting Guard #2

25dLauren Williams of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports the Hawks have signed Keaton Wallace to a two-way contract.

Wallace spent last season on a two-way contract with the Hawks and will do the same in 2025-26. The older brother of Oklahoma City guard Cason Wallace, Keaton appeared in 31 games last season, making five starts when the Hawks were without Trae Young. With Atlanta signing Nickeil Alexander-Walker via sign-and-trade, Wallace’s streaming opportunities will likely be limited next season.

Asa Newell

ATL Power Forward

29dAsa Newell amassed 14 points (4-of-9 FGs, 5-of-8 FTs), six rebounds and one three-pointer in Monday’s win over the Rockets.

Newell’s production took a hit after a stellar performance in Sunday’s win over the Suns. However, the reps are more important than the numbers, as the first-round pick won’t turn 20 until early October. With the Hawks among the teams still in contention to reach the semifinals of the NBA 2K26 Summer League, Newell does not appear to be a shutdown candidate. If the Hawks were to end his summer league, that would mean more opportunities for Jack McVeigh. He shined against the Rockets, finishing with 21 points, four rebounds, three assists, one block and four three-pointers in 27 minutes off the bench.

Kobe Bufkin

ATL Point Guard #4

29dKobe Bufkin accounted for 25 points (8-of-15 FGs, 5-of-6 FTs), six rebounds, three assists, two steals, one block and four three-pointers in Monday’s win over the Rockets.

Bufkin shot the ball far better than on Sunday, when the Hawks guard made only three of 17 attempts from the field in a win over Phoenix. However, the scoring efficiency was countered by a brutal day regarding ball control. Bufkin turned the ball over nine times against the Rockets, eight more than his total on Sunday. While his opportunities will be limited once the regular season begins, Bufkin must be efficient as a scorer and playmaker to log consistent minutes off the bench.

Jacob Toppin

ATL Small Forward #00

29dJacob Toppin (hip) is out for the remainder of Monday’s game against the Rockets.

Toppin, who agreed to a two-way contract in March, played well in Las Vegas before suffering an injury. According to the Hawks, he’s dealing with a left hip injury sustained during the first half of Monday’s game. Given Atlanta’s depth at the power forward position, Toppin may struggle to get the minutes needed to impact fantasy basketball once the regular season begins. That said, the Hawks had to be pleased with his play at summer league.

Kobe Bufkin

ATL Point Guard #4

30dKobe Bufkin amassed 10 points (3-of-17 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), six rebounds and nine assists in Sunday’s win over the Suns.

Bufkin did not have a good day shooting the basketball, but that’s unsurprising given that he’s working his way back from season-ending shoulder surgery in December. The rust is expected. The positive for Bufkin is that he dished out nine assists while committing just one turnover. Bufkin has little fantasy value at this point behind Trae Young, Dyson Daniels, and Nickeil Alexander-Walker. However, Bufkin reaching the point where he can be trusted with rotation minutes would benefit the franchise.

Asa Newell

ATL Power Forward

30dAsa Newell accumulated 18 points (7-of-9 FGs, 0-of-2 FTs), 11 rebounds, one block and four three-pointers in Sunday’s win over the Suns.

Newell was considerably better in his second appearance after an inefficient scoring night on Friday in his summer league debut. The first-round pick out of Georgia only missed two of his nine shot attempts and recorded a double-double. Also, Newell shot 4-of-5 from beyond the arc. While he was only a 29 percent shooter at Georgia, the Hawks forward/center will have every opportunity to expand his game. Atlanta’s frontcourt depth should allow Newell not to be rushed through his development, which may pay dividends in the long run.

Nikola Djurisic

ATL Center

1moHoopsHype’s Michael Scotto reports the Hawks have signed Nikola Djurišić to a three-year, $5.95 million deal.

Selected by the Heat with the 43rd pick in the 2024 draft, Djurišić’s draft rights were included in a three-team deal between Miami, Atlanta and Houston. The 21-year-old center saw all of his game time in the G League last season, appearing in 32 games for Atlanta’s affiliate. Djurišić’s contract includes a $1.27 million guarantee for the 2025-26 season, and he’ll look to provide additional depth behind Kristaps Porzingis and Onyeka Okongwu.

David Roddy

FA Power Forward #21

1moHawks waived F David Roddy.

Roddy was sent to Atlanta as part of the Kevin Durant trade that included seven teams. The Hawks won’t keep him around, and Roddy will have a chance to find a new home.
