Daniels ended Thursday's 117-107 victory over Philadelphia with 15 points (7-12 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-3 FT), seven rebounds, two assists and one steal over 37 minutes.
Daniels has had an up-and-down season. His steal rate has dropped compared to last year, and his three-point shot has completely eluded him. Even so, he ranks as a seventh-round value in nine-category formats through 54 games with 11.6 points, 6.5 rebounds, 6.1 assists, 1.8 steals and 0.2 three-pointers.

Hawks' Dyson Daniels: Drops team-high 21 in Charlotte
Rotowire
Daniels produced 21 points (9-12 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds and four assists over 25 minutes during Wednesday's 110-107 loss to the Hornets.
After sitting out Monday's game in Minnesota due to a sore ankle, Daniels returned to action and led the Hawks in scoring. The fourth-year guard has been inconsistent of late, scoring in double digits in only five of his last 10 games while averaging 10.5 points, 6.2 assists, 5.6 boards and 1.4 steals, and he continues to struggle from three-point range. Daniels is shooting just 27.3 percent (3-for-11) over that stretch from beyond the arc, and a woeful 13.3 percent on the season.

Rotowire
Daniels (ankle) is available for Wednesday's game against Charlotte, Kevin Chouinard of the Hawks' official site reports.

Hawks' Dyson Daniels: Iffy for Wednesday
Rotowire
Daniels (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Hornets.
Daniels missed Monday's matchup with the Timberwolves while tending to a right ankle issue, and he's now in danger of missing a second game. The team should have another update to share closer to tipoff.

Hawks' Dyson Daniels: Nursing ankle injury
Rotowire
Daniels is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Timberwolves due to right ankle inflammation, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
Daniels may have tweaked his ankle during the Hawks' loss to the Hornets on Saturday, when he logged 11 points, six rebounds, three assists and two steals over 31 minutes. CJ McCollum, Gabe Vincent and Buddy Hield figure to be the top candidates to enter Atlanta's starting lineup if Daniels is unable to play Monday.

Hawks' Dyson Daniels: Modest production continues
Rotowire
Daniels closed Saturday's 126-119 loss to the Hornets with 11 points (5-13 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, three assists and two steals in 31 minutes.
Daniels continues to struggle on the offensive end, appearing more passive than usual. He has scored no more than 11 points in five straight games, a worrying trend for fantasy managers. While scoring is certainly not one of his strengths, it does seem as though he is more hesitant than usual, often not even looking at the basket despite being in a scoring position. His peripheral production, as always, is enough to buoy his fantasy value to the point that he continues to put up top 80 numbers despite averaging just 10.5 points per game in 14 appearances over the past month.
Daniels ended Tuesday's 127-115 victory over Miami with two points (1-4 FG), one rebound, five assists and one steal across 22 minutes.
Daniels continues to offer very little on the offensive end of the court, scoring in single digits for the fifth time in the past seven games. While his peripheral contributions have been adequate, he appears to have lost some of his confidence when it comes to scoring the basketball. His reluctance to want to score is certainly impacting his fantasy value, as he has been barely a top-80 player in seven games over the past two weeks.

Hawks' Dyson Daniels: Peripheral production continues
Rotowire
Daniels registered eight points (4-7 FG), seven rebounds, seven assists and two steals in 29 minutes during Saturday's 129-124 loss to Indiana.
Daniels was a little quiet on the offensive end but once again salvaged his night with an across-the-board performance. He has now recorded at least seven assists in six of the past seven games, while also adding 14 steals and 48 rebounds during that span. While he is better suited to punt-points builds, he is doing more than enough to be rostered across all formats.

Hawks' Dyson Daniels: Hits for 22 against Indiana
Rotowire
Daniels closed with 22 points (10-15 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, nine assists, one block and one steal over 35 minutes during Monday's 132-116 victory over the Pacers.
It was Daniels' best scoring effort since Dec. 14, when he erupted for 27 points against the 76ers. The fourth-year guard has seen his offense take a step back from his breakout 2024-25 campaign, particularly from three-point range, but through 12 games in January, Daniels is averaging 12.6 points, 7.3 assists, 7.1 boards and 1.5 steals per game.

Hawks' Dyson Daniels: Iffy for Saturday
Rotowire
Daniels (ankle) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Celtics.
Daniels is managing a right ankle sprain that clouds his availability for Saturday's home contest. The guard has been productive in January, averaging 12.6 points, 7.0 rebounds, 7.0 assists and 1.8 steals in 34.9 minutes per game across eight appearances. If he's unable to suit up, the Hawks could turn to recently acquired CJ McCollum in the starting lineup.

Hawks' Dyson Daniels: Scores 10 points in loss
Rotowire
Daniels contributed 10 points (5-9 FG), five rebounds, one assist and one steal over 33 minutes during Thursday's 117-101 loss to the Trail Blazers.
Daniels did not attempt any three-pointers, and his confidence from beyond the arc likely isn't there, with an 11.3 percent mark for the season. He's been solid elsewhere, however, posting averages of 11.7 points, 6.6 rebounds, 6.1 assists and 1.9 steals in 34.1 minutes per contest.

Hawks' Dyson Daniels: Double-double in loss
Rotowire
Daniels logged 20 points (9-13 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 12 assists, five rebounds, two steals and two blocks over 34 minutes during the Hawks' 134-117 loss to the Raptors on Saturday.
Daniels recorded his fifth double-double of the season Saturday, and his 12 dimes were tied for his second most of the year. He also reached the 20-point threshold for the first time since Dec. 14, finishing as the Hawks' third-leading scorer behind Nickeil Alexander-Walker (31 points) and Jalen Johnson (30 points). Daniels has recorded at least seven assists in five straight games and will continue to serve as one of the Hawks' top distributors, especially in games for which Trae Young (quadriceps) doesn't play, as was the case Saturday.

Daniels ended Monday's 140-129 loss to the Thunder with 13 points (6-13 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, seven assists, two blocks and one steal across 35 minutes.

Hawks' Dyson Daniels: Listed out for Tuesday
Rotowire
Daniels won't play Tuesday against the Bulls with right hip inflammation.
This is a new injury for Daniels, and the severity is unclear. In his most recent outing Sunday against the Bulls, Daniels had eight points (3-9 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-4 FT), nine rebounds, nine assists and two steals across 39 minutes. Nickeil Alexander-Walker and Vit Krejci could see increased minutes Tuesday with Daniels out.

Hawks' Dyson Daniels: Double-doubles in win

Daniels supplied 27 points (13-19 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 0-2 FT), 10 rebounds, four assists, two blocks and one steal across 39 minutes during Sunday's 120-117 win over Philadelphia.
Daniels set a new season high in scoring in this one, as he notched his second straight double-double and helped Atlanta earn their seventh straight victory over Philadelphia. Daniels will look to keep the good times rolling Thursday with a favorable matchup against the Hornets, but his offensive usage could take a hit, as Trae Young (knee) is nearing a return to game action.

Hawks' Dyson Daniels: Balanced stat line Thursday
Rotowire
Daniels contributed eight points (4-8 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 0-1 FT), six rebounds, five assists and three steals across 31 minutes during Thursday's 135-126 loss to the Spurs.
Daniels didn't have his best scoring output in this nine-point loss, as Nickeil Alexander-Walker and Jalen Johnson did that, but Daniels delivered solid numbers in other categories. As a defensive specialist, Daniels has enough talent to be a valuable fantasy option due to his ability to fill the stat sheet across all categories, even in games when his scoring output is limited.

Hawks' Dyson Daniels: Sniffs triple-double in win
Rotowire
Daniels supplied 11 points (5-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), seven rebounds, 12 assists and three steals in 37 minutes during Sunday's 124-122 victory over the Suns.
Daniels' 12 assists were his second-best output of the season, and he allowed players like Jalen Johnson, Nickeil Alexander-Walker and Onyeka Okongwu to carry the scoring lead. Daniels made his presence felt on both ends of the court, as he also notched three steals and finished just three rebounds away from recording what would've been his first triple-double of the season.

Hawks' Dyson Daniels: Doesn't do much over 27 minutes
Rotowire
Daniels finished Thursday's 132-122 win over Utah with two points (1-2 FG), two rebounds, three assists and one steal in 27 minutes.
Daniels spent a lot of energy chasing around Lauri Markkanen on defense, and he was scoreless through the first half of action without a single shot attempt. He didn't even get his first shot up until the six-minute mark of the third quarter, and he managed to record only one steal. Look for Daniels to bounce back with a more productive stat line Sunday against the Suns.

Hawks' Dyson Daniels: Season-high eight assists
Rotowire
Daniels posted seven points (2-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, eight assists, one block and two steals in 35 minutes during Friday's 109-97 loss to Toronto.
Daniels contributed a season-high eight assists, continuing to ramp up his production in the wake of the knee injury to Trae Young. He had also scored 18 points in each of the three contests prior to Friday, an indication that he will indeed be more involved offensively. Through nine games, he is averaging 9.8 points, 6.0 rebounds, 4.2 assists and 2.4 steals in 32.7 minutes per contest.
