Dyson Daniels stepped up for the Hawks, recording a double-double against the Lakers with 10 points, eight rebounds, and a career-high 13 assists. Filling in for injured Trae Young, Daniels has been averaging seven assists per game during Young’s absence. While his scoring may remain inconsistent, Daniels’ increased playmaking responsibilities should persist until Young returns.

Dyson Daniels has inked a four-year, $100 million rookie extension with the Atlanta Hawks following a breakout season. Daniels made a significant impact last season, averaging 14.1 points, 5.9 rebounds, 4.4 assists, and an impressive 3.0 steals per game. Fantasy managers were thrilled with his league-leading steals, but will look for improvement in his free throw percentage as they eye a potential first-round value in the upcoming season.

The Atlanta Hawks will be without Dyson Daniels and Jalen Johnson for their final preseason game against the Rockets on Thursday. Head coach Quin Snyder assured there’s no concern over their availability for the regular season opener on October 22. Both players have shown significant progress, with Johnson particularly standing out offensively, making them valuable picks in fantasy drafts, especially in category leagues.
