5 years agoAtlanta Hawks small forward De'Andre Hunter had 22 points when he returned from a one-game absence in Monday's loss to Philadelphia. He struggled from deep by going just 1-for-6, but he was busy at the line with a 9-for-10 effort and he shot 6-for-15 overall from the field. Hunter also found some time in 39 minutes to pick up seven rebounds and two assists. The 22-year-old rookie had a pretty up and down start to the season but he's rolling now, scoring 10-plus points in 10 of his last 11 appearances. The streak also includes a couple of 20-point efforts, and he's averaging 6.1 boards per game this month. With the Hawks going nowhere, Hunter looks set for a big finish to the season.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller
