Hawks general manager Landry Fields said Bufkin (shoulder) will be ready for training camp, Kevin Chouinard of the Hawks' official site reports. The Scoop:Bufkin suffered a right shoulder subluxation during the offseason which kept him out of the Las Vegas Summer League. However, he's been cleared to be a full participant to start training camp. With Dejounte Murray out of the equation this season, both Bufkin and Dyson Daniels will have a lot of opportunity to earn meaningful minutes in the backcourt. Sep 30 2:14 ET - | ||||||||

Out for remainder of Summer League The Hawks announced Thursday that Bufkin suffered a right shoulder subluxation during Tuesday's practice and will not play in the Las Vegas Summer League. The Scoop: While Bufkin's shoulder injury will keep him out of the Summer League, he is expected to make a full recovery ahead of training camp. The second-year guard averaged 4.8 points, 1.9 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 11.5 minutes across 17 regular-season appearances in 2023-24. Jul 11 6:36 ET |
Gets rotation spot in return 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 |
