Mouhamed Gueye Injury News & Updates
Keep up with the latest injuries from the Hawks vs Hornets game on Thursday with our National Basketball Association injury report.Dec 5, 2025
Headed to bench
Gueye will come off the bench for Friday's game versus the Nuggets, Kevin Chouinard of the Hawks' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jalen Johnson is back and starting and Kristaps Porzingis will be working with the second unit, so it could be tough for Gueye to find meaningful minutes Friday evening. He's a risky target with the Hawks' frontcourt healthy again.
Dec 3, 2025
Scoreless over 23 minutes
Gueye ended Wednesday's 115-92 loss to the Clippers with zero points (0-2 FG), six rebounds and one steal across 23 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Gueye saw some increased opportunity as a starter Wednesday, but he failed to make the most of it, missing both of his shot attempts in a scoreless performance. He's gone 0-for-5 from the floor over the past two games, so he's clearly slumping at the moment. Expect him to return to a reserve role Friday against the Nuggets.
Dec 3, 2025
Starting Wednesday
Gueye is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Clippers, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Gueye is getting the start with Jalen Johnson (calf) unavailable, and he'll be joined in the first unit by Dyson Daniels, Nickeil Alexander-Walker, Zaccharie Risacher and Onyeka Okongwu. As a starter this season, Gueye has posted averages of 16.0 points, 6.5 rebounds, 4.5 assists, 3.0 triples, 1.0 steals and 1.5 blocks per contest.
Dec 1, 2025
All around impact in win
Gueye closed Sunday's 142-134 double-overtime victory over the 76ers with 13 points (6-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 0-2 FT), four rebounds, one block and two steals over 23 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Gueye has now put up back-to-back double-digit scoring performances and has recorded both a steal and a block in both those games. His increased role may be due to Kristaps Porzingis (illness) being sidelined, but Gueye has taken advantage of the opportunity and will continue to do so if Porzingis remains out.
Nov 24, 2025
Muted in win
Gueye posted four points (2-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt), one rebound, one assist and two blocks over 17 minutes during Sunday's 113-110 win over the Hornets.
ANALYSIS
Gueye's role within Atlanta's rotation has been very inconsistent, and although he recorded two blocks Sunday he only scored four points in 17 minutes. Gueye will likely continue to back up Jalen Johnson for the forseeable future.
Nov 19, 2025
Double-doubles in loss
Gueye chipped in 11 points (5-10 FG, 1-5 3Pt), 11 rebounds, one assist and one block across 21 minutes during Tuesday's 120-112 loss to the Pistons.
ANALYSIS
Gueye recorded his first double-double of the season, hauling down a team-high 11 rebounds. Atlanta is battling a number of injuries to key players at the moment, resulting in outlier performances such as this. Prior to Tuesday, Gueye had scored a total of just 12 points in his previous four games, meaning he should be viewed as nothing more than a potential streaming candidate.
Nov 10, 2025
Retreats to bench
Gueye won't start Monday's game against the Clippers, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Gueye drew a spot start Saturday and fared well, but he'll return to his typical bench role with Jalen Johnson back in action Monday. The Washington State product is averaging 5.2 points and 4.6 rebounds in 15.0 minutes over his last five appearances as a reserve.
Nov 8, 2025
Leads Atlanta in start
Gueye amassed 21 points (8-12 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), seven rebounds, seven assists, two steals and one block across 34 minutes in Saturday's 122-102 win over the Lakers.
ANALYSIS
Gueye got the starting nod for the injury-plagued Hawks, posting a team- and season-high 21 points. He also knocked down four three-pointers for just the second time in his career. Additionally, the 22-year-old dished out a career-high mark in assists after totaling eight in his first nine regular-season appearances. He'll likely continue to provide a spark off the bench, though Gueye is a likely candidate to step into the starting five whenever Jalen Johnson (quadriceps) is sidelined.
Nov 8, 2025
Back in starting lineup
Gueye is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Lakers, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The Hawks will be without several key players in the frontcourt, such as Kristaps Porzingis (illness) and Jalen Johnson (quadriceps), so Gueye will step into a starting role. In his lone previous start this season, Gueye posted 11 points, six rebounds, two assists and two blocks across 23 minutes in a loss to the Thunder on Oct. 25.
Nov 5, 2025
Swats three shots
Gueye accumulated five points (2-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 0-1 FT), three rebounds and three blocks across 18 minutes during Tuesday's 127-112 victory over the Magic.
ANALYSIS
Gueye continues to play a decent-sized role for the second unit in Atlanta. Across eight appearances, he's averaging 6.5 points, 3.8 rebounds, 0.9 assists and 0.9 blocks in 15.5 minutes per contest. At least while Atlanta's frontcourt is intact, Gueye's fantasy appeal will be limited to deeper formats.
Oct 27, 2025
Headed to bench
Gueye will return to the second unit for Monday's game in Chicago, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Gueye was able to earn a starting nod with both Kristaps Porzingis (illness) and Jalen Johnson (ankle) missing in action Saturday, but those guys are back and starting Monday, which will significantly impact Gueye's minutes. As a member of the reserves, Gueye isn't an attractive target in most 12-team formats.
Oct 25, 2025
Starting sans Johnson
Gueye will start in Saturday's game against the Thunder, Kevin Chouinard of the Hawks' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
With Jalen Johnson (ankle) sidelined, Gueye will get the starting nod in the second leg of the team's back-to-back set. The 22-year-old logged 30 minutes off the bench in Friday's win over Orlando, posting 13 points (5-9 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-3 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and one block.
Oct 24, 2025
Flirts with double-double in win
Gueye produced 13 points (5-9 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-3 FT), eight rebounds, three assists, one block and three turnovers in 30 minutes off the bench during Friday's 111-107 win over Orlando.
ANALYSIS
Gueye got some extended run in this one with Kristaps Porzingis (illness) unavailable and both Jalen Johnson and Onyeka Okongwu dealing with foul trouble, and he made the most out of the opportunity. He brought some great energy and grit to the second unit, but it's worth noting he only saw five minutes off the bench in the season opener when Porzingis was healthy. There's a lot of talent here, but he's currently buried on the depth chart.
Oct 21, 2025
Off injury report for Wednesday
Gueye (rest) is off the Hawks' injury report for Wednesday's game against the Raptors, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Gueye will return to game action after sitting out Thursday's preseason loss to the Rockets. The 22-year-old big man is expected to provide frontcourt depth for the Hawks this season behind Jalen Johnson, Kristaps Porzingis and Onyeka Okongwu.
Oct 16, 2025
Out Thursday
Gueye (rest) won't play in Thursday's preseason game against the Rockets, Kevin Chouinard of the Hawks' official sitereports.
ANALYSIS
Gueye will sit out Atlanta's preseason finale due to rest purposes. The big man's next opportunity to play will come in Wednesday's regular-season opener against Toronto.
Oct 15, 2025
Likely to play Thursday
Gueye (rest) is likely to be available for Thursday's preseason finale against Houston, Caleb Johnson of 92.9 The Game reports.
ANALYSIS
Gueye joined the Hawks' regular contributors in street clothes in Monday's preseason game against the Heat, but he should be in uniform Thursday. Atlanta's starters could see close to a normal allotment of minutes in this final tune-up game, so Gueye may not see a heavy load off the bench.
Oct 13, 2025
Resting vs. Heat
Gueye won't play in Monday's preseason game against the Heat for rest reasons, Kevin Chouinard of the Hawks' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Gueye is part of a group of Atlanta players getting Monday night off. The big man's next opportunity for exhibition action comes Thursday against the Rockets.
Apr 12, 2025
Career-high 18 boards
Gueye chipped in 10 points (4-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), 18 rebounds, two assists, one block and three steals in 33 minutes during Friday's 124-110 victory over the 76ers.
ANALYSIS
Coming off a 12-rebound effort against the Nets on Thursday, Gueye did even better on the boards Friday as he hauled in a career-high 18 rebounds, nine of which came on the offensive side of the floor. Gueye has averaged 7.0 points, 8.2 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 1.2 blocks and 1.0 steals over 20.4 minutes per game over his last five outings.
Apr 8, 2025
Returning to starting unit
Gueye is in the starting five for Tuesday's game versus the Magic.
ANALYSIS
Gueye will reclaim his starting spot from Georges Niang against Orlando. Gueye has averaged 4.9 points and 3.7 rebounds in 14.9 minutes across his previous 10 starting appearances.
Apr 6, 2025
Bench role against Utah
Gueye will come off the bench during Sunday's game against the Jazz, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
ANALYSIS
After starting the last four games for the Hawks, Gueye will be in the second unit for Atlanta on Sunday against Utah. In four games in a reserve role this season, Gueye is averaging 5.3 points and 4.5 rebounds while shooting 37.5 percent from the field.
Mar 30, 2025
Back in starting five
Gueye is in the Hawks' starting lineup against the Bucks on Sunday, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Gueye will replace Vit Krejci in the starting lineup for Sunday's contest. Gueye has averaged 5.5 points, 2.9 rebounds, 0.9 assists and 1.1 blocks over 16.1 minutes per game since the All-Star break.
Mar 27, 2025
Moving to bench role
Gueye isn't starting Thursday's game against the Heat.
ANALYSIS
Gueye will come off the bench for the first time since Feb. 7, as the Hawks have elected to change up the starting five. The Washington State product has been quiet across the board of late, averaging 4.1 points and 3.0 rebounds in 14.6 minutes over his last seven appearances. Vit Krejci will be penciled into the starting lineup in Gueye's place.
Mar 17, 2025
Muted performance in loss
Gueye notched two points (1-4 FG, 0-3 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and three blocks over 17 minutes during Sunday's 122-114 loss to the Nets.
ANALYSIS
Gueye posted a dud of a fantasy line Sunday, but his fantasy managers should consider cutting him some slack. Over his last seven outings, Gueye has been a top-100 fantasy player in nine-category formats in just 19.2 minutes with 7.4 points, 3.7 rebounds, 1.0 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.7 blocks.
Mar 11, 2025
Impresses as starter
Gueye finished with 14 points (4-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), seven rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal over 21 minutes during Monday's 132-123 victory over the 76ers.
ANALYSIS
Making his 13th start of the campaign, Gueye made a strong impression in Monday's win. He's trending in the right direction, and fantasy managers are starting to notice. Over his last four games, Gueye holds averages of 9.8 points, 4.3 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 1.8 steals and 1.5 blocks.
Mar 4, 2025
Starting Tuesday
Gueye will start in Tuesday's game against the Bucks, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Gueye will return to the starting five after receiving a DNP in Monday's win over Memphis. The 22-year-old has started in each of his last seven appearances, averaging 4.4 points and 1.9 rebounds across 13.7 minutes per contest.
Mar 3, 2025
Not starting Monday
Gueye will come off the bench in Monday's game against Memphis, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Dominick Barlow will supplant Gueye in the starting five Tuesday, marking his first contest coming off the bench since Feb. 7. In seven consecutive starts, the forward had averaged 4.4 points and 1.9 rebounds across only 13.7 minutes per contest.
Feb 10, 2025
Starting vs. Orlando
Gueye is in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Magic.
ANALYSIS
Gueye will get the nod at power forward in this contest and will be starting for the third time over his last four outings. The second-year forward is averaging 9.5 points, 6.3 rebounds, 1.8 steals and 1.5 blocks per game in his last four games.
Feb 10, 2025
Back with parent club
The Hawks recalled Gueye from the G League's College Park Skyhawks on Monday.
ANALYSIS
Gueye will rejoin the Hawks for Monday's game in Orlando after he had been assigned to the G League ahead of Saturday's 125-111 win over the Wizards. The Hawks chose to hold the second-year big man out Saturday because he had already seen significant playing time in both of the previous two days, as he logged 34 minutes for College Park in Thursday's win over the Birmingham Squadron before joining Atlanta and producing 15 points, 12 rebounds, four blocks and two steals in 23 minutes in Friday's win over the Bucks. In the wake of his big performance Friday, Gueye may have made a case for a more permanent spot in the rotation, though he likely won't be in line for major minutes in Monday's game in any case since the Hawks have all of their key forwards and centers available aside from Jalen Johnson (shoulder).
Feb 7, 2025
First double-double of NBA career
Gueye registered 15 points (6-12 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 12 rebounds, two assists and four blocks over 23 minutes during Friday's 115-110 win over the Bucks.
ANALYSIS
Gueye has spent most of the 2024-25 regular season in the G League with the College Park Skyhawks, but he was recalled by the Hawks prior to Friday's contest. The 2023 second-round pick played a pivotal role for the Hawks off the bench and was on the floor during crunch time as the Bucks attempted to mount a comeback. In the process, Gueye logged a season-high in points and rebounds en route to recording the first double-double of his NBA career. He'll take that momentum into Saturday's road contest against the Wizards.
Feb 7, 2025
Recalled to ATL on Friday
The Hawks recalled Gueye from the G League's College Park Skyhawks on Friday.
ANALYSIS
Gueye will join the parent club ahead of its matchup versus the Bucks on Friday. The 22-year-old has appeared in only five regular-season outings for the Hawks, averaging 5.0 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.o steals across 13.6 minutes per contest.
Feb 1, 2025
Retreats to bench
Gueye isn't in the starting five for Saturday's game versus the Pacers, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Gueye will be replaced by Dominick Barlow in the starting lineup Saturday. Gueye is averaging 2.0 points and 2.0 rebounds in 10.0 minutes during his three appearances coming off the bench this season.
Jan 31, 2025
Another solid showing as starter
Gueye posted eight points (4-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 0-1 FT), three steals, two rebounds, one assist and one block in 16 minutes during Thursday's 137-115 loss to the Cavaliers.
ANALYSIS
With Bogdan Bogdanovic (personal) out again and Jalen Johnson (shoulder) officially done for the year, Gueye got another spot start. He delivered once again, nabbing a career high in steals and logging contributions across the stat sheet. He's now averaging 9.5 points and 4.5 rebounds on 50 percent shooting as a starter. However, Gueye's already modest fantasy value could dip once Bogdanovic returns and Zaccharie Risacher (adductor) sheds his minutes restriction. His next chance to start comes Saturday against the Pacers.
Jan 29, 2025
Drops 11 points in spot start
Gueye racked up 11 points (5-11 FG, 1-4 3Pt), seven rebounds and one block in 22 minutes during Tuesday's 100-96 loss to Houston.
ANALYSIS
Gueye was unexpectedly named as a started Tuesday, filling in for Zaccharie Risacher who was resting on the second night of a back-to-back. It was the first start of Gueye's career and just the fourth time he has appeared in a game all season. While this is a feel-good situation, there is no reason to think he will step into a consistent role, assuming the Hawks can stay relatively healthy.
Jan 28, 2025
Making first NBA start
Gueye is in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Rockets, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Gueye made his first appearance since Nov. 4 on Monday and recorded four points (2-9 FG, 0-6 3Pt), four rebounds, two steals and one assist. Gueye will now make back-to-back NBA appearances for the first time this season.
Jan 27, 2025
Rejoins parent club
The Hawks recalled Gueye from the G League's College Park Skyhawks on Monday.
ANALYSIS
Gueye will suit up Monday for Atlanta's game against Minnesota, but even with the Hawks ruling out four players and listing three others as questionable, the second-year big man may not crack head coach Quin Snyder's rotation. The 22-year-old possesses a spot on Atlanta's 15-man roster but has played just six total minutes over two appearances all season.
Dec 26, 2024
Returns to NBA
The Hawks recalled Gueye from the G League's College Park Skyhawks on Thursday.
ANALYSIS

Dec 14, 2024
Recalled by Hawks
Gueye was recalled by the Hawks on Saturday, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Dec 12, 2024
Back to G League
After being recalled from the G League on Wednesday, Gueye has been assigned back to the College Park Skyhawks by the Atlanta Hawks on Thursday, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
ANALYSIS
While Gueye was elevated for Atlanta's NBA Cup game against the Knicks on Wednesday, he did not play and was immediately sent back to the G League. Gueye will likely remain with the Skyhawks moving forward barring injury, and only appear on the court for Atlanta in garbage time situations.
Dec 12, 2024
Returns to NBA
The Hawks recalled Gueye from the G League's College Park Skyhawks on Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Gueye hasn't made an NBA appearance since Nov. 4. The 22-year-old big man will likely return to the G League soon, where he is averaging 9.4 points, 8.4 rebounds and 1.4 assists in 27.4 minutes across 11 outings.
Nov 16, 2024
Headed to G League
The Hawks assigned Gueye to the College Park Skyhawks of the G League on Saturday.
ANALYSIS

Nov 15, 2024
Recalled from G League
Gueye was recalled from the G League's College Park Skyhawks on Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Gueye is expected to continue bouncing around the G League and NBA level throughout the season, as he was just assigned to the Skyhawks on Wednesday.

Nov 11, 2024
Recalled from G League

Nov 6, 2024
Recalled from G League
The Hawks recalled Gueye from the G League's College Park Skyhawks on Wednesday.
ANALYSIS

Nov 4, 2024
Returns from G League
The Hawks recalled Gueye from the G League's College Park Skyhawks on Monday.
ANALYSIS
Gueye will be available to serve as frontcourt depth for the Hawks in Monday's game against the Celtics. The second-year big man has appeared in just one of the Hawks' first seven games of the season, logging three total minutes.
Nov 1, 2024
Back with ATL
Gueye was recalled from the G League's College Park Skyhawks on Friday, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Gueye was assigned to the G League on Friday and recalled the same day. However, the 21-year-old is not expected to play a significant role in the rotation and has appeared in just one matchup for the Hawks this season, during which he scored two points (1-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt) across three minutes.
Nov 1, 2024
Assigned to G League
Gueye was assigned to the G League's College Park Skyhawks on Friday, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Gueye will join the Skyhawks Friday, though he could be recalled as soon as Friday's game against the Kings, according to Rowland. The 21-year-old has appeared in just one contest for the Hawks this season, during which he scored two points (1-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt) across three minutes.
Oct 28, 2024
Returns to NBA club
Atlanta recalled Gueye from the G League's College Park Skyhawks on Monday, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Gueye practiced with the Skyhawks on Monday morning but will be available for the Hawks' matchup against Washington on Monday night. Gueye hasn't been part of the regular rotation to begin the season, but Atlanta has a lengthy injury report for Monday's game.
Sep 30, 2024
Cleared to play
Hawks general manager Landry Fields said Monday that Gueye (hip) will be ready for training camp this week, Kevin Chouinard of the Hawks' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Gueye had a very quiet rookie season for the Hawks, playing 11 regular season games with averages of 2.4 points, 2.1 rebounds and 1.6 blocks. With Atlanta's considerable depth at center, Gueye is unlikely to crack the rotation to open the new campaign.
Jul 17, 2024
Early exit Wednesday
Gueye has been ruled out for the remainder of Wednesday's Summer League game against the Lakers due to a hip contusion.
ANALYSIS
Gueye put up 10 points, three rebounds and an assist in 16 minutes before exiting the contest and knocked down two of his three attempts from long range. The big man's next chance to play will come Friday.
Apr 7, 2024
Gets run late in blowout
Gueye (elbow) recorded zero points (0-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt) and one rebound over four minutes in Saturday's 142-110 loss to the Nuggets.
ANALYSIS
Gueye checked in for Jalen Johnson with 3:43 remaining in the fourth quarter and played the rest of the game as the Hawks essentially conceded defeat in the blowout loss. The late cameo marked Gueye's first appearance for Atlanta since Oct. 30, after he missed extended time first due to a stress fracture in his back and more recently due to a UCL sprain in his right elbow. He should be active for Atlanta the rest of the season, though he may need at least one of Clint Capela, Jalen Johnnson, De'Andre Hunter or Bruno Fernando to miss time before he's included in the rotation.
Apr 6, 2024
Available for Saturday
Gueye (elbow) will be available for Saturday against the Nuggets.
ANALYSIS
Gueye has been sidelined since Oct. 30, so he's not guaranteed to see the floor Saturday night.
Apr 5, 2024
Questionable for Saturday
Gueye (elbow) is considered questionable for Saturday's game in Denver, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Apr 4, 2024
Won't play Thursday
Gueye (elbow) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Mavericks, Kevin Chouinard of the Hawks' official site reports.

Apr 2, 2024
Another absence coming
Gueye (elbow) won't play in Wednesday's game versus the Pistons.
ANALYSIS
Gueye hasn't played since Oct. 30 and will remain out Wednesday with an elbow injury. However, the rookie big man has progressed to full-contact workouts, with Thursday's matchup with Dallas being his next chance to suit up.

Feb 26, 2024
Returns from G League
Atlanta recalled Gueye (back) from the G League's College Park Skyhawks on Monday.
ANALYSIS
Gueye has yet to make any appearances for the Hawks or Skyhawks since Oct. 30, but his return from the G League suggests that he could be nearing the finish line of his recovery from a stress fracture in his lower back.

Feb 24, 2024
Still out
Gueye (back) won't play in Sunday's game versus the Magic, Lauren L. Williams of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
ANALYSIS

Remains out Friday

ANALYSIS
Gueye's absence streak will extend to 52 games Friday due to a right low back stress fracture. There is no timetable for his return.
Feb 13, 2024
Won't return before All-Star break
Gueye (back) will not play Wednesday versus Charlotte.
ANALYSIS
Atlanta utilizing the All-Star break as an opportunity for Gueye to heal further is a logical course of action. The 6-foot-11 rookie from Washington State is ramping up activity, but a concrete return has yet to be estimated.
Feb 11, 2024

Feb 6, 2024
Progressing in practice plan
Gueye (back) is continues participating in modified practices with Atlanta's G League affiliate, and he will travel with Atlanta throughout the coming week while he continues his rehab.
ANALYSIS
Gueye's modified practices presumably entail limited-contact drills and conditioning activities. The 21-year-old appears set to continue his rehab during road contests against Boston on Wednesday and Philadelphia on Friday, but Atlanta coming home to face Houston on Saturday could be a possible return date.
Feb 5, 2024
Won't play Monday
Gueye (back) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Clippers, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Although Gueye was recalled by Atlanta ahead of Monday's matchup, he'll be unable to return to the court as he continues to deal with a low back stress fracture. It's not yet clear when he'll be able to suit up, but his next chance to do so will be Wednesday against Boston.

Begins G League assignment
Atlanta assigned Gueye (back) to the G League's College Park Skyhawks on Saturday, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Gueye's assignment to College Park could indicate that the rookie is beginning to ramp up from a stress fracture in his lower back, which has sidelined him since the end of October. College Park's next game isn't until Wednesday, so Gueye may just be participating in the practices with the G League club for the next few days. Though Gueye isn't one of the Hawks' three two-way players, the rookie could eventually be eased back into game action at the G League level rather than with the NBA club.

Dealing with back strain
Gueye is questionable for Thursday's game against the Magic due to a right lower back strain.

Reassigned to parent club
Gueye was reassigned to Atlanta on Friday, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Solid numbers off bench

The 39th overall pick in the 2023 NBA Draft is not expected to see regular rotation minutes once the regular season begins, and the most likely scenario for him will be to open the season in the G League. That said, he showed flashes of his potential in this one and is likely to continue seeing minutes in the preseason.
