NBC SportsClint Capela (back) is out for Thursday's game against the Cavaliers.

Capela was a late scratch Tuesday against the Rockets and continues to deal with back spasms as he's already been ruled out Thursday. The Cavaliers are a bad matchup for Atlanta to be missing a center with Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen down low. Larry Nance Jr. and Onyeka Okongwu should continue to fill in for Capela.

NBC SportsClint Capela (back) has been ruled out for Monday's game against Houston.

This announcement came after tipoff, which is frustrating for fantasy managers. With Capela dealing with back spasms, Larry Nance Jr. should fill out the backup center minutes behind Onyeka Okongwu.

NBC SportsThe Hawks will start Trae Young, Dyson Daniels, Vit Krejci, Mouhamed Gueye and Onyeka Okongwu against the Rockets on Tuesday.

Both Young and Daniels will return to the starting lineup after missing Monday's game. That will push Keaton Wallace back to the bench, though Krejci will remain in the starting lineup in place of Zaccharie Risacher (groin). Gueye will get the first start of his career, as he replaces David Roddy at power forward.

NBC SportsKeaton Wallace, Vit Krejci, Zaccharie Risacher, David Roddy, and Onyeka Okongwu will start Monday's game against Minnesota.

Risacher will return to action on Monday, but the Hawks are down three starters (Trae Young, Dyson Daniels, and Jalen Johnson). Wallace, Krejci, and Roddy will fill those voids. The first two are the players who deep-league managers should look to stream.
