| Bufkin (toe) tallied three points (1-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt), three assists, two rebounds and one block across 17 minutes off the bench in Monday's 113-101 win over the Bulls. The Scoop:Suiting up for the first time since March 2 after recovering from a sprained left big toe, Bufkin supplanted Trent Forrest in the rotation as the Hawks' backup point guard and also saw some playing time in an off-ball role alongside Dejounte Murray. The rookie first-round pick could have the ability to pick up more minutes if the Hawks elect to deprioritize two-way player Vit Krejci on the wing, but if he sticks in his current backup role, Bufkin's fantasy upside will be fairly limited.

| Set to return Monday Bufkin (toe) is available for Monday's game against the Bulls, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports. The Scoop: The rookie first-round pick had been sidelined since early March with a left big toe sprain, but after recently ditching his walking boot and resuming on-court work, he'll be ready to go Monday. With five other Hawks players out with injuries Monday, Bufkin could find himself in the rotation in his return to action. Apr 1 10:25 ET |
| Deemed questionable for Monday Bufkin (toe) is questionable for Monday's game against the Bulls, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports. The Scoop: Bufkin has missed the last 14 games due to a left big toe sprain, but he seems to be trending toward a return since he is listed as questionable rather than being immediately ruled out. Bufkin could find his way into the rotation should he suit up, due to the numerous injuries in Atlanta's backcourt. Mar 31 10:11 ET |
| Will remain sidelined Saturday Bufkin (toe) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against Milwaukee. The Scoop: The Hawks announced last week that Bufkin would be re-evaluated in 7-to-10 days, and he isn't yet ready to return to game action. It's not yet clear when he'll be able to suit up, but his next chance to do so will be Monday against Chicago. Mar 29 9:16 ET |

Vit Krejci and Trent Forrest have received increased playing time in Bufkin's absence. Mar 21 3:46 ET |
