Latest Hawks News
Asa Newell : Scoreless in seven minutes
Newell had no counting stats across seven minutes during Thursday's 140-89 loss to the Knicks in Game 6 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs. Newell made a rare appearance in garbage time in this lopsided defeat. The rookie first-round pick wasn't given many opportunities at the NBA level in 2025-26. He made 44 regular-season appearances and averaged 5.2 points, 2.2 rebounds and 0.6 assists in 11.4 minutes per contest, but he did shoot 53.8 percent from the field.
Buddy Hield : Makes rare appearance
Hield supplied five points (2-2 FG, 1-1 3Pt) and two rebounds over nine minutes during Thursday's 140-89 loss to the Knicks in Game 6 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs. With the Hawks getting blown out of this contest, Hield was able to make his second appearance of the postseason. Following his move from Golden State, Hield wasn't able to carve out a role in Atlanta. He appeared in just seven regular-season contests for an average of 7.3 minutes per game. The veteran is under contract for two more seasons, though the second year is a player option.
Mouhamed Gueye : Sees nine minutes in loss
Gueye racked up two points (1-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt), two rebounds and two assists in nine minutes during Thursday's 140-89 loss to New York in Game 6 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs. Playing in his third NBA season, Gueye was mostly a depth player for the Hawks in 2025-26. Across 77 regular-season contests, he averaged 15.3 minutes per game with 4.4 points, 3.6 rebounds and 0.8 steals on 45.2 percent shooting from the field. The Hawks hold a $2.4 million team option ahead of the 2026-27 season.
Keaton Wallace : Limited to 10 minutes
Wallace closed Thursday's 140-89 loss to New York in Game 6 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs with four points (2-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and one steal in 10 minutes. With the Knicks putting this game out of reach early, Wallace made his third appearance of the postseason. He played a combined six minutes in his previous two appearances. Wallace was used sparingly by the Hawks in 2025-26, appearing in 53 regular-season games with averages of 3.5 points, 1.8 assists, 1.1 rebounds and 0.5 steals in 10.1 minutes per contest.
Gabe Vincent : Scoreless in 13 minutes
Vincent racked up zero points (0-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and one steal over 13 minutes during Thursday's 140-89 loss to New York in Game 6 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs. Vincent had a difficult showing off the bench, but hardly anyone on the Hawks got anything going against the Knicks. Following his midseason trade from the Lakers to the Hawks, Vincent saw a very modest role in 24 regular-season contests with averages of 3.9 points, 1.6 assists, 1.1 rebounds and 0.9 three-pointers in 13.3 minutes per contest.
Corey Kispert : Quiet outing in loss
Kispert recorded four points (1-7 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds and one assist over 15 minutes during Thursday's 140-89 loss to New York in Game 6 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs. Kispert wasn't able to find much success off the bench for Atlanta as the season came to a disappointing end. Following his midseason trade from the Wizards to the Hawks, Kispert appeared in 39 regular-season contests with averages of 9.2 points, 2.3 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.5 three-pointers in 18.2 minutes per contest.
Jalen Johnson : Bright spot in loss
Johnson registered 21 points (7-15 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 5-5 FT), eight rebounds, six assists and one block over 32 minutes during Thursday's 140-89 loss to New York in Game 6 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs. Johnson was a bright spot for the Hawks in their season-ending loss, while no other player on the roster eclipsed 11 points. The Hawks committed to the young star as their franchise player by trading away Trae Young, and Johnson put together a sensational breakout season. Across 72 regular-season contests, he compiled averages of 22.5 points, 10.3 rebounds, 7.9 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.7 three-pointers in 35.2 minutes per game.
Nickeil Alexander-Walker : Held to 11 points in loss
Alexander-Walker supplied 11 points (3-8 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 4-6 FT), one rebound, two assists and one steal in 29 minutes during Thursday's 140-89 loss to New York in Game 6 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs. The Hawks were completely steamrolled Thursday as their season came to an end. Alexander-Walker's first campaign in Atlanta was a major success, however, as he won the Most Improved Player award after compiling regular-season averages of 20.8 points, 3.7 assists, 3.4 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 3.2 three-pointers in 33.4 minutes per contest.
