Injury Report: Milwaukee Bucks vs Atlanta Hawks

The Hawks are in the midst of a four-game winning streak and hope to extend that tomorrow when they face the Milwaukee Bucks. Ahead of their matchup with the Bucks, Atlanta released its injury report and there is positive news for the Hawks on the injury front.

After missing the past few games with an ankle injury, Jalen Johnson is questionable tomorrow vs the Bucks. Johnson suffered the injury vs the Cavs and had to miss games, but he returned and was playing well before reinjuring it late in a blowout loss vs the Lakers.

Saddiq Bey (left knee torn ACL), Kobe Bufkin (left big toe sprain), AJ Griffin (right ankle sprain), Mouhamed Gueye (right UCL sprain), Trae Young (left fifth finger torn ligament), and Onyeka Okongwu (left big toe sprain) are all out for the Hawks tomorrow.

The Hawks are feeling good after getting two wins in four days vs the Boston Celtics and it was a huge night for Dejounte Murray last night.

You don't hear Dejounte Murray's name thrown around for the NBA's most clutch player, but he has shown this year that he has a case. He has had game-winners vs Orlando, and Miami, and last night, he had his biggest one of the year. While Murray did not have the most efficient night scoring, his ability to take over the game in overtime and hit the game-winner showcased his clutch ability.

Murray was 18-44 last night for a career-high 44 points and he outscored the Celtics by himself in overtime 11-10. While Young has been out with his injury, Murray has had to take it upon himself to be the main source of offense in a lot of the games just for the Hawks to have a chance to win and he has stepped up in a lot of those games. The Hawks have tough games left to finish the season and Murray may need to have some more big games to help the Hawks go past the Bulls for the No. 9 spot.

Let's see if Murray and the Hawks can get their fifth straight win tomorrow night.
