Hawks' Georges Niang: Immediate impact in team debut
Georges Niang contributed 16 points (6-10 FG, 4-7 3Pt), six rebounds, three assists and three steals over 26 minutes during Saturday's 125-111 victory over Washington.Making his Atlanta Hawks debut, Niang was immediately thrust into the starting lineup and recorded a season-high three steals. The 31-year-old operated strictly as a reserve for the Cavaliers, as evidenced by his one start this season prior to Saturday. Still, it appears initially as though Atlanta has a significant role in mind for Niang at power forward in the void of Jalen Johnson (shoulder). That said, Niang is worth a speculative add in deep fantasy leagues until his role becomes solidified.
