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.

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: Grabs eight boards in win
Rotowire
Daniels produced eight points (4-6 FG), eight rebounds and four assists in 37 minutes during Friday's 110-103 win over Phoenix.
After shooting 1-for-9 from the field in Wednesday's win over Memphis, Daniels was efficient in his limited chances Friday. However, the 22-year-old guard failed to score in double figures for the third time in his last five outings. On a more positive note, he has grabbed at least seven rebounds in four of those five games. During that span, Daniels has averaged 9.2 points, 7.4 rebounds, 5.6 assists and 1.2 steals in 33.6 minutes per contest.

Rotowire

After sitting out Saturday's loss to Boston due to a minor ankle issue, Daniels returned and nearly came away with his second triple-double of the season after he delivered the first Jan. 9 against the Nuggets. The fourth-year guard instead settled for his seventh double-double. In 11 games since Trae Young (knee) made his last appearance for the Hawks, Daniels has averaged 12.9 points, 7.5 assists, 7.2 boards, 1.8 steals and 0.8 blocks per contest.

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.

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: Stuffs stat sheet in win
Rotowire
Daniels recorded 13 points (6-11 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), eight rebounds, eight assists, one block and three steals over 35 minutes during Wednesday's 117-100 win over the Pelicans.
Daniels notched his seventh straight game scoring in double figures and led the team with eight assists in Wednesday's win. He also recorded three steals for the first time since Dec. 1 after tallying nine games with at least three swipes in October and November. With Trae Young traded to Washington on Wednesday, Daniels should continue to serve as one of Atlanta's top playmaking options. The 22-year-old guard is averaging 13.7 points, 6.7 rebounds, 6.5 assists and 1.4 steals in 34.9 minutes per game over his last 15 outings.

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.

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
Rotowire
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.

Rotowire

Daniels contributed a season-high eight assists, continuing to ramp up his production in the wake of the knee injury to Trae Young.

Hawks' Dyson Daniels: Well-rounded outing in victory
Rotowire
Daniels finished with 18 points (8-9 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, six assists and two steals across 35 minutes in Tuesday's 127-112 win over the Magic.
After failing to reach double figures in each of Atlanta's first five outings, Daniels delivered an extremely efficient performance, marking his third consecutive game with 18 points. The 22-year-old guard also led the Hawks in assists and has dished out six in three of his last four appearances. He will likely continue to see an increased role on offense with Trae Young (knee) sidelined. Additionally, Daniels has impressed on the defensive end thus far, recording multiple steals in all but one of his eight regular-season games.

Hawks' Dyson Daniels: Starting to heat up
Rotowire
Daniels logged 18 points (8-12 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-4 FT), four rebounds, three assists, one block and four steals in 36 minutes during Sunday's 117-109 loss to the Cavaliers.
Daniels racked up a season-high four swipes, putting him up to 33 career regular-season games with at least four steals. The swingman had scored in single digits in five consecutive games to open the season, but he's posted 18 points in back-to-back contests now. On the year, Daniels has averaged 9.0 points, 5.7 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 2.6 steals in 32.0 minutes per game.

Hawks' Dyson Daniels: Well-rounded outing in win
Rotowire
Daniels racked up 18 points (8-13 FG, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, six assists and three steals over 38 minutes during Friday's 128-108 win over the Pacers.
Daniels delivered his best offensive performance of the season after scoring single-digit points in the team's first five regular-season games. With Trae Young (knee) sidelined, Daniels also stepped up as a distributor. The 22-year-old is a consistent producer on the defensive end and has racked up multiple steals in five of six regular-season games, and he could continue to see more opportunities on the offensive end if Young misses significant time.

Hawks' Dyson Daniels: Tallies four defensive stats
Rotowire
Daniels finished with seven points (3-10 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, six assists, one block and three steals across 35 minutes during Wednesday's 117-112 win over Brooklyn.
Daniels had arguably his best game of the season, despite shooting just 3-for-10 from the field. Production aside, perhaps the biggest takeaway was the fact that Trae Young suffered a knee injury, which could send him to the sideline for a period of time. The effect here could be that Daniels is tasked with doing a little more on the offensive end, boosting his potential for scoring and assists.
