The 2024-2025 NBA season begins tonight with a pair of games, but the rest of the league will begin tomorrow, including the Atlanta Hawks. Ahead of their season
opener vs the Brooklyn Nets, the Hawks released their injury report.
Dominick Barlow , Kobe Bufkin , Seth Lundy , and Cody Zeller are all listed as out tomorrow.On Monday, the team announced that Bufkin was going to miss the season opener vs the Nets due to sustaining a right shoulder injury during practice on Saturday. The team said that they will update his health as appropriate.
Hopefully for Bufkin and the Hawks, this is not something that keeps him out long-term. Bufkin was out for all of Summer League with a right shoulder subluxation and he also missed time during his rookie season with injuries. During the preseason, Bufkin was the main backup point guard for the Hawks.
It will be interesting to see how Hawks head coach Quin Snyder handles the minutes when Trae Young is off the floor. This is one of the biggest questions for the Hawks coming into the season and without Bufkin, it becomes even more of a question. While not a true point guard, it could be that Bogdan Bogdanovic handles the offense with Young off the floor. Vit Krejci, Dyson Daniels, and maybe even Keaton Wallace are also candidates to handle things with Young off the floor.
Bufkin had a solid, though far from perfect, preseason. He finished very well in the last game, scoring 31 points and hitting seven three's. Bufkin played in all four games this preseason and averaged 15 points on 37% shooting from the floor and 35% from three. He also averaged 4.3 APG and 3.0 RPG in 26 minutes per game.
