  • Pelle Larsson SF | MIA

    Heat's Pelle Larsson: Added to injury report

    Larsson is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Miami due to a right lower-leg contusion.

    Larsson's late addition to the injury report isn't a good sign ahead of Sunday's regular-season finale. Myron Gardner and Kel'el Ware would both be in line for more minutes if Larsson is unable to play.

  • Coby White PG | CHA

    Hornets' Coby White: Good to go Sunday

    White (calf) is available for Sunday's game against the Knicks.

    White will shake off his probable tag due to right calf soreness and suit up in Charlotte's regular-season finale. The 26-year-old guard has appeared in four games in April, during which he has averaged 14.5 points, 2.3 rebounds and 2.3 assists across 17.5 minutes per tilt.

  • Mouhamed Gueye PF | ATL

    Hawks' Mouhamed Gueye: May not play against Miami

    Gueye is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Heat due to right shoulder inflammation.

    The Hawks are resting several key players for Sunday's regular-season finale, including Onyeka Okongwu (finger), Jalen Johnson (rest) and Jonathan Kuminga (knee). Gueye was slated to take on an elevated role, but his status is now in jeopardy due to his injury. If he's unable to play against the Heat, then more minutes would be available for Tony Bradley, Christian Koloko and Asa Newell.

  • Gabe Vincent PG | ATL

    Hawks' Gabe Vincent: Won't play Sunday

    Vincent (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Heat.

    Vincent wasn't included on Atlanta's initial injury report, but he'll be held out of the team's regular-season finale due to left knee inflammation. With the Hawks set to be thin in the backcourt, Keaton Wallace, RayJ Dennis and Buddy Hield are all candidates to see increased burn. Vincent will finish the regular season with averages of 4.4 points, 1.4 assists and 1.0 rebounds in 16.6 minutes per game across 53 appearances (seven starts) between the Hawks and Lakers.

  • Hawks' Jonathan Kuminga: Won't play Sunday

    Kuminga (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Miami.

    Kuminga will join several other Hawks players on the sidelines for Sunday's regular-season finale. The 2021 first-rounder was acquired by Atlanta from Golden State in early February, and in 13 outings since March 12, Kuminga has averaged 10.2 points, 4.8 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.0 threes and 0.7 steals over 21.0 minutes, establishing himself as a key piece to the Hawks' rotation heading into the postseason. Corey Kispert, Zaccharie Risacher, Buddy Hield and Keaton Wallace should all operate in expanded roles against the Heat.

  • CJ McCollum PG | ATL

    Hawks' CJ McCollum: Sitting out Sunday

    McCollum (rest) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Heat.

    McCollum and the rest of Atlanta's starters will rest during the regular-season finale, with the Hawks locked into a top-six seed. In 41 regular-season appearances with the Hawks (25 starts), McCollum averaged 18.7 points, 4.1 assists, 3.1 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 28.8 minutes. While he wasn't a direct replacement for Trae Young (quadriceps, back), McCollum's midseason arrival and Jalen Johnson's ascension proved to be a willing formula for the Hawks, who'll advance to the playoffs for the first time since the 2022-23 season.

  • Hawks' Onyeka Okongwu: Ruled out Sunday

    Okongwu (finger) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Heat.

    Okongwu will be held out of Atlanta's regular-season finale due to a left index finger sprain. With the Hawks holding multiple key contributors out, Mouhamed Gueye, Asa Newell and Tony Bradley should all see significant run in the frontcourt. Okongwu has taken a significant step forward in 2025-26 and will finish the regular season with averages of 15.2 points, 7.6 rebounds, 3.1 assists, 1.1 blocks and 1.1 steals in 31.0 minutes per contest across 74 outings (63 starts).

  • Dyson Daniels SG | ATL

    Hawks' Dyson Daniels: Won't play against Miami

    Daniels (toe) has been ruled out for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Heat.

    Daniels and several other Hawks players will not play in Sunday's regular-season finale in order to rest up before the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs. The 2022 first-rounder will end the regular season averaging 11.9 points, 5.9 assists, 6.8 rebounds and 2.0 steals over 33.2 minutes per game. Zaccharie Risacher, Corey Kispert, Keaton Wallace and Buddy Hield are all poised to operate in elevated roles against Miami.

  • Jalen Johnson SF | ATL

    Hawks' Jalen Johnson: Resting Sunday

    Johnson (rest) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Heat.

    With the Hawks locked into a top-six seed, Johnson and the rest of the starters will take a night off during the regular-season finale. After two injury-plagued seasons, Johnson was healthy in 2025-26 and posted a career-best campaign, averaging 22.5 points, 10.3 rebounds, 7.9 assists and 1.2 steals in 35.2 minutes across 72 regular-season games.

  • Hawks' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Won't play Sunday

    Alexander-Walker (toe) has been ruled out for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Heat.

    Alexander-Walker will end up missing the final game of the regular season while tending to a right great toe sprain, but that injury shouldn't prevent him from playing in the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs. The veteran wing has enjoyed a career year in his first season in Atlanta, and he'll wrap up the 2025-26 regular season averaging 20.8 points, 3.7 assists, 3.4 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 3.2 threes over 33.4 minutes per game. The Hawks are resting several of their key players Sunday, which opens up more minutes for the likes of Corey Kispert, Zaccharie Risacher, Buddy Hield and Keaton Wallace.
