The Atlanta Hawks have one more game before the All-Star break, as they'll face the Charlotte Hornets. The Hawks could be missing some key players due to injury, with Jalen Johnson, Dyson Daniels, and Zaccharie Risacher all listed as questionable for the game.

Why it matters

The Hawks are currently the ninth seed in the Eastern Conference, and the Hornets are tracking right behind them. Having a healthy roster could go a long way in helping the Hawks gain ground in the standings before the All-Star break.

The details

Johnson and Daniels did not play in the Hawks' last game against the Minnesota Timberwolves due to their injuries, and with the break coming up, it would not be a surprise if they sat out again. As for Risacher, he was seen hobbling a little bit during the Timberwolves' game, and it's not certain how serious his injury is. Risacher was just added to the Rising Stars Game for All-Star weekend, and if his injury is something to take note of, they'll probably have to find somebody to replace him.
