4 years agoAtlanta Hawks small forward De'Andre Hunter (knee) has been cleared to participate in Monday's contest versus the Clippers, marking his first outing since Jan. 29. Hunter underwent meniscus surgery, and as one of Atlanta's future cornerstones, the team will slowly acclimate him back to the rotation. Facing a 16-20-minute restriction, Hunter will not yet be a fantasy asset in either DFS or season-long formats, but his return does knock some of the shine off of Danilo Gallinari. Prior to the injury that forced his early exit, Hunter had scored in double figures in each of his first 17 games, showcasing the upside that he possesses when fully healthy.--Jesse Borek
