Hawks' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Could return Sunday
Rotowire
Alexander-Walker (foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Portland.
A left foot sprain sidelined Alexander-Walker for Thursday's 126-96 win over the Wizards.

Hawks' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Won't play Thursday
Rotowire
Alexander-Walker (foot) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Wizards, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
Jalen Johnson (hip) will join Alexander-Walker on the sidelines for Thursday's game, so Jonathan Kuminga might be moving into the starting lineup and a prominent role Thursday evening. CJ McCollum also figures to be very busy on offense, and Corey Kispert could see an uptick in minutes. For now, Alexander-Walker should be considered questionable for Sunday's meeting with the Trail Blazers.
Alexander-Walker is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Wizards due to a left foot sprain, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
Alexander-Walker may have picked up the injury during Atlanta's 119-98 win over Washington, which puts him in jeopardy of being sidelined for Thursday's rematch. Jalen Johnson (hip) and Zaccharie Risacher (hip) are both also listed as questionable, so there are opportunities for more playing time for Corey Kispert, Gabe Vincent and Jonathan Kuminga, depending on who ends up being available.

Hawks' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Pours in 32 in Monday's loss
Rotowire
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.

Hawks' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Logs team-high 26 points in loss
Rotowire
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.
