Hawks' Dylan Windler: Ineligible to play Sunday
Windler has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Pacers with an ineligible to play designation.
Windler is operating under a two-way deal and thus was eligible to be active for only a handful of games after joining Atlanta in early March. He appeared in six of the Hawks' last 16 games, averaging 4.7 points and 2.0 rebounds in 12.2 minutes, but he did stand out during Wednesday's 115-114 loss to Charlotte, as he scored 12 points (4-7 3Pt) in 26 minutes.

Hawks' Dylan Windler: Drops 12 points as reserve
Windler chipped in 12 points (4-7 FG, 4-7 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist over 26 minutes during Wednesday's 115-114 loss to Charlotte.
Windler didn't appear in any of the Hawks' previous five games, but he saw plenty of run off the bench Wednesday since Atlanta was dealing with multiple absences. The team announced Thursday that Jalen Johnson (ankle) and Onyeka Okongwu (toe) will miss multiple weeks, but Windler's role will likely depend on how much De'Andre Hunter (rest) and Wesley Matthews (hamstring) play down the stretch.

Hawks' Dylan Windler: Finds work in Atlanta
Windler agreed to a two-way contract with Atlanta on Monday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Windler has spent time with the Knicks and Lakers this season, and the 27-year-old will now join an Atlanta team that could benefit from his presence as a strong positional rebounder and perimeter threat. He played just 35 total minutes in the NBA this season, but the 6-foot-7 forward ranks in the 90th percentile for total rebounding rate among all G League players across the last two seasons. He could be a candidate for a small role with Atlanta off the bat, though Windler is eligible to be active in only 12 out of the Hawks' 22 remaining games due to his previously accumulated service time as a two-way player.

Dylan Windler: Cut by Lakers
The Lakers waived Windler on Saturday, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.
Windler was the casualty with the Lakers choosing to free up one of their three two-way slots for big man Harry Giles. While he's been a standout at the G League level with averages of 13.3 points, 8.3 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 2.3 three-pointers, 0.8 steals and 0.7 blocks in 28.6 minutes per game over his 16 appearances this season between the Westchester Knicks and South Bay Lakers, Windler has struggled to find consistent playing time in the NBA.

The Knicks waived Windler on Wednesday.

Knicks' Dylan Windler: Recalled from G League
New York recalled Windler from the G League's Westchester Knicks on Monday.
Windler will provide some emergency depth for Monday's game against the Raptors, as Mitchell Robinson (foot) is out and Jalen Brunson (ankle) is questionable. Though he'll be back with the NBA team, Windler is unlikely to be included in head coach Tom Thibodeau's rotation.

Windler was added to the Knicks' 15-man roster Saturday, Fred Katz of The Athletic reports.
Windler's two-way contract was converted into a one year, non-guaranteed pact with New York.

He was able to log 11 G League contests in 2022-23, averaging 12.2 points and 5.9 rebounds on 52.3 percent shooting from the field and 40.7 percent from three. Windler, Jaylen Martin and Nathan Knight represent the Knicks' two-way signings and will compete for third-string forward minutes.

Knicks' Dylan Windler: Nabs two-way deal from New York
Windler (foot) agreed to a two-way contract with the Knicks on Monday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
A 2019 first-round draft pick, Windler has dealt with numerous injuries through the first four seasons of his NBA career. He was limited to just three appearances at the NBA level with the Cavaliers in the 2022-23 campaign before Cleveland opted not to extend the 26-year-old wing a qualifying offer at the start of the new league year. Windler will attempt to revive his career in New York, though his status as a two-way player means he'll likely see the majority of his playing time with the G League's Westchester Knicks in 2023-24.

Dylan Windler: Not extended qualifying offer
Windler (foot) wasn't extended a qualifying offer from the Cavaliers ahead of Thursday's deadline, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.
Windler was limited to just three games during the 2022-23 season due to injuries, a trend that has plagued the first few years of his NBA career. The Cavaliers had the option to make him a restricted free agent, but he'll instead be free to seek out other opportunities as an unrestricted free agent.
