De'Andre Hunter (illness) scratched late Monday for Hawks
Atlanta Hawks small forward De'Andre Hunter (illness) has been ruled out for Monday against the Chicago Bulls.
What It Means:
Hunter matched his season-high with 25 points last game, but he is a late scratch on Monday after not being listed on any of the previous injury reports. Rookie AJ Griffin or Bogdan Bogdanovic will likely replace Hunter in the starting lineup, but they should both see more playing time against the Bulls.
In 10 starts this season, Griffin has a 20.1% usage rate across and is averaging 21.9 FanDuel points in 29.1 minutes per game. Per numberFire's NBA Heat Map, the Hawks’ implied total (119.0) is tied for No. 8 out of 14 active teams today.
