Onyeka Okongwu will sit out Saturday’s game against the Pacers due to a mouth injury sustained during Wednesday’s clash with the Celtics. The injury resulted in a dental fracture that needed surgical attention, ruling him out for at least two games. In his absence, the Hawks are expected to look to Mouhamed Gueye and Christian Koloko to cover his minutes. Okongwu remains day-to-day as he recovers.

In a standout performance, Onyeka Okongwu tallied 23 points, seven rebounds, and six assists over 39 minutes in the Hawks’ narrow loss to the Bulls. Despite shooting efficiently and leading all scorers with 17 first-half points, Okongwu’s impact diminished in the second half as Jalen Johnson and Trae Young led Atlanta’s late comeback attempt. The Hawks’ efforts ultimately fell short on the game’s final possession.

Onyeka Okongwu posted an impressive performance in the Hawks’ win over the 76ers, with a robust stat line including 20 points, 15 rebounds, and five three-pointers.

Fantasy managers might consider holding onto Okongwu, as his production and the potential for increased minutes due to starter Kristaps Porziņģis’s injury history could enhance his value.

Onyeka Okongwu has been cleared to play in Sunday’s matchup against the Hornets after dealing with an ankle issue. With Kristaps Porziņģis sidelined due to a knee injury, Okongwu is set to enter the starting lineup. His return enhances his fantasy value, making him a strong candidate for pickup in leagues where he remains unclaimed.

With his status uncertain, the Hawks might rely more on Mouhamed Gueye to fill in the gap if Okongwu is unable to play. Kristaps Porziņģis’s presence provides some depth, but the team will need solid performances from its bench to compensate for Okongwu’s potential absence.
