Mouhamed Gueye (ATL): Day-To-Day

Mouhamed Gueye, the Hawks’ forward who averages 4.4 points, 3.6 rebounds and 0.9 assists in 77 games, is listed as Day‑To‑Day after undergoing surgery on Tuesday to fix a fractured left foot. The injury is expected to keep him out until around October 15, 2026. While his statistical contributions are modest, he provides depth in the frontcourt and can be called upon for minutes when the rotation tightens.

Atlanta sits at 46‑36, sixth in the Eastern Conference and ranked 13th in overall power, with a net rating of +2.4. The team is coming off a single loss and has gone 6‑4 in its last ten games. Losing Gueye’s bench minutes may force the Hawks to rely more heavily on other role players, especially as they navigate the stretch of games leading up to his projected return. Monitoring the lineup adjustments and any additional minutes given to other forwards will be key to understanding how the Hawks manage this short‑term loss.
