Hawks' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Struggles with shot in win
Alexander-Walker chipped in 11 points (3-11 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds, four assists, two blocks and one steal across 33 minutes during Wednesday's 124-122 victory over Memphis.
Alexander-Walker had a tough time getting his shot to drop, missing his first five field-goal attempts, and he didn't get his first three-pointer to fall until late in the fourth quarter. It was an off-night for a guy who is having a career year, but managers can anticipate a bounce-back performance Friday versus Phoenix.

Hawks' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Pours in 32 in Monday's loss
Alexander-Walker had 32 points (9-20 FG, 7-16 3Pt, 7-7 FT), six rebounds, six assists, one block and one steal in 39 minutes during Monday's 112-110 loss to the Bucks.
The 27-year-old guard continues to have a breakout campaign, and the Hawks swapping Trae Young (knee) out for CJ McCollum in the backcourt has only solidified his elevated usage. Monday's 32 points were Alexander-Walker's best output since Nov. 30, when he dropped 34 on the 76ers, and it marked the sixth time he's delivered 30-plus points in 43 games. Through 10 contests in January, Alexander-Walker is averaging 21.8 points, 4.7 boards, 4.3 assists, 3.7 threes and 1.5 steals.

Hawks' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Strong campaign continues
Alexander-Walker posted 11 points (2-6 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 5-6 FT), six rebounds, seven assists and one steal over 29 minutes during Thursday's 117-101 loss to the Trail Blazers.
Alexander-Walker is enjoying a successful first year in Atlanta so far, and he should continue to do so with Trae Young (knee) now out of the picture altogether. Over his last 10 contests, Alexander-Walker has averaged 20.9 points, 4.3 rebounds, 3.9 assists and 1.5 steals in 33.8 minutes per game.

Hawks' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Logs team-high 26 points in loss
Alexander-Walker ended Tuesday's 141-116 loss to the Lakers with 26 points (10-16 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds and three assists over 33 minutes.
Alexander-Walker has found himself in a plum position as Atlanta's starting off-guard, but the newly acquired CJ McCollum is quickly getting familiar with the offense, scoring 25 points during Tuesday's loss. A switch to McCollum in the backcourt may be imminent, and the eventual move will hurt Alexander-Walker and Dyson Daniels. The production of both players warrants close attention, as one of them could be removed from the first unit in the impending scenario.

Hawks' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Strong contributor in win
Alexander-Walker notched 24 points (9-18 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three steals, two rebounds and two assists across 34 minutes during Sunday's 124-111 victory over the Warriors.
Alexander-Walker was one of three Hawks to top 20 points in Sunday's double-digit road win. The 27-year-old has been confident firing from deep, knocking down at least three triples in seven of the past 10 games. It's been a true breakout in the guard's first season with Atlanta, as he's averaging 20.6 points through 39 appearances after posting single-digit scoring averages in each of the previous three regular seasons.

Hawks' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Fills up stat sheet vs. Pelicans
Alexander-Walker ended with 17 points (6-18 FG, 2-12 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds, six assists, two blocks and three steals across 34 minutes during Wednesday's 117-100 win over the Pelicans.
Alexander-Walker continues to thrive in his first year in Atlanta, scoring in double figures in 35 of 37 games this season. While he had one of his least efficient shooting nights, the 27-year-old guard was impactful on the defensive end, matching a season high with five combined steals and blocks. Alexander-Walker has started the past six games for Atlanta, and now, with Trae Young dealt to the Wizards on Wednesday, he should continue to see healthy playing time. Alexander-Walker is averaging 20.8 points, 3.4 threes, 3.3 assists, 3.1 rebounds and 1.4 steals in 33.9 minutes per contest over his last nine games.

Hawks' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Game-high 31 points in loss
Alexander-Walker logged 31 points (10-19 FG, 6-11 3Pt, 5-5 FT), four rebounds, three assists and two steals over 36 minutes during the Hawks' 134-117 loss to the Raptors on Saturday.
Alexander-Walker did commit six turnovers, his highest since Nov. 4 against the Magic (seven), but the seventh-year guard led both teams in scoring while connecting on at least six three-pointers for the fifth time this season. He has started in each of Atlanta's last four games in the absence of Trae Young (quadriceps), and over that span, Alexander-Walker has averaged 23.8 points, 3.5 assists, 3.0 rebounds, 4.5 threes and 1.5 steals over 35.3 minutes per game.

Hawks' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Leads team with 30 points in relief
Alexander-Walker provided 30 points (11-24 FG, 6-14 3Pt, 2-3 FT), four rebounds, five assists, one block and two steals in 40 minutes during Monday's 140-129 loss to the Thunder.
Dyson Daniels slid over to handle the point guard duties for Trae Young (quad), and Alexander-Walker took his place, finishing with his fourth-best scoring performance of the season. After serving a support role for most of his NBA tenure, Alexander-Walker is thriving with his new team, starting 25 of 32 games and obliterating previous seasonal averages. He's currently averaging 20.6 points per game, which is nine points higher than his previous best in 2020.

Hawks' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Starting Monday
Alexander-Walker is starting Monday's game against the Thunder, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
Alexander-Walker will enter the starting lineup on a night where the Hawks are shorthanded without Trae Young (quadriceps) and Jalen Johnson (illness). Alexander-Walker looked strong in his last start Tuesday against Chicago, finishing with 21 points, one rebound, two assists and two steals in 34 minutes.

Hawks' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Back to bench role
Alexander-Walker is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Heat.
Alexander-Walker will return to the bench after Dyson Daniels was cleared to play. With Trae Young back in the mix, Alexander-Walker should operate as one of the Hawks' first players off the bench. He's averaging 20.9 points, 3.8 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game in December, though he started all but two of those 10 contests.

Hawks' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Returning to starting five
Alexander-Walker is in the Hawks' starting lineup against the Bulls on Tuesday, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
Alexander-Walker has come off the bench in two of his last three outings, but he'll enter Atlanta's starting five Tuesday due to the absence of Dyson Daniels (hip). Across nine games in December, Alexander-Walker has averaged 20.9 points, 4.1 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 3.2 threes and 0.9 steals over 32.6 minutes per game.

Hawks' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Heading back to bench
Alexander-Walker is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Bulls, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
Trae Young (knee) is back in the lineup to claim his usual spot in the first unit, which unsurprisingly sends Alexander-Walker to the bench. Over four appearances off the bench this year, Alexander-Walker has averaged 18.3 points, 4.5 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 1.0 steals and 1.0 blocks in 31.1 minutes per game.

Hawks' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Team-high 23 points Friday
Alexander-Walker posted 23 points (7-18 FG, 2-10 3Pt, 7-9 FT), four assists and two rebounds over 33 minutes during the Hawks' 126-98 loss to the Spurs on Friday.
Alexander-Walker returned to the starting lineup Friday after coming off the bench Thursday against the Hornets. The Hawks struggled as a whole on both ends of the floor, but despite his inefficiencies from three-point range, Alexander-Walker still managed to lead Atlanta in scoring and finished as the game's second-leading scorer behind Victor Wembanyama (26 points). Since Dec. 1, Alexander-Walker has averaged 22.4 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 3.5 threes and 0.9 steals over 32.9 minutes per game.

Hawks' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Back in starting lineup
Alexander-Walker is in the Hawks' starting lineup against the Spurs on Friday, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
Alexander-Walker has started 22 of 26 regular-season games thus far, and despite coming off the bench against the Hornets on Thursday, he still finished with 28 points, eight rebounds and two assists over 34 minutes. With Trae Young (injury management) not playing in the second leg of the Hawks' back-to-back set, Alexander-Walker will be reinserted into Atlanta's starting lineup for Friday's home tilt.

Hawks' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Back to bench vs. Hornets
Alexander-Walker is not starting in Thursday's game against Charlotte, per Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network.
The 2019 first-rounder had started each of his appearances since the Oct. 31 win over Indiana, but the return of Trae Young (knee) is stopping that streak Thursday. Over three games off the bench this year, Alexander-Walker has averaged 15.0 points, 3.3 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.3 blocks in 30.1 minutes per tilt.

Hawks' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Adds 28 points despite role shift
Alexander-Walker racked up 28 points (11-18 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds and two assists over 34 minutes during Thursday's 133-126 loss to Charlotte.
Alexander-Walker moved back to a bench role following the return of Trae Young from a knee injury, but his production didn't take any sort of hit. Thursday marked the fifth time in seven December appearances that Alexander-Walker has scored 20 or more points, and he should continue to see chances to fire at the offensive end, even with Young now healthy.

Alexander-Walker (ankle) is available for Sunday's game against the 76ers, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
Alexander-Walker drew the questionable tag for Sunday's game due to a right ankle sprain, but he has been given the green light to play. The seventh-year pro is in the midst of a career year and is averaging 20.7 points, 3.5 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 2.9 threes and 1.0 steals over 32.6 minutes per game.

Hawks' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Nursing ankle sprain
Alexander-Walker (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the 76ers, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
Alexander-Walker is nursing a sprained right ankle that he presumably sustained during the Hawks' 142-115 loss to the Pistons on Friday. Luke Kennard, Zaccharie Risacher and Vit Krejci would all be in line for increased roles if Alexander-Walker is not cleared to play Sunday.
