Hawks' Rajon Rondo (back) questionable for Tuesday

Atlanta Hawks point guard Rajon Rondo (low back pain) has been upgraded to questionable for Tuesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

What It Means:

Rondo has missed the Hawks' past seven games, but his questionable designation for Tuesday's game indicates that he is approaching a return. We'll still have to monitor his status ahead of game-time tomorrow, but Rondo appears to be on the mend.

Tony Snell has seen a noticeable bump in minutes since Rondo initially injured his back, and could see his role diminish when the veteran returns. Our models currently project Snell for 9.6 fantasy points on Tuesday, with 5 points, 1.8 rebounds, and 1.1 assists.
