Bembry (wrist) is available for Saturday's game against the Celtics, Michael Cunningham of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bembry will be available, but there's no guarantee he'll play. Coach Mike Budenholzer said that if Bembry does take the floor, it will be in "short bursts" and his total minutes will be "based on feel." Until we know more about his potential role, he makes for a risky fantasy option.

Bembry (wrist) has been upgraded to probable for Saturday's game against the Celtics, Michael Cunningham of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bembry has yet to play since the season opener while working his way back from a wrist fracture. More word on his availability should come after Saturday morning's shootaround. But, assuming he plays, he'll likely cut into the minutes of Luke Babbitt.

Bembry (wrist) has progressed to dribbling and taking mid-range jumpers. Michael Cunningham of the Atlanta-Journal Constitution reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bembry was seen taking layups at Wednesday's practice, so he's continuing to make progress. He also notes his next step is to start taking threes. While there's still uncertainty about his return date, there seems to be a solid chance he'll see rotational minutes once he's back, considering the lack of overall talent on Atlanta's roster. In his one appearance this season, he played 18 minutes.

Bembry (wrist) has begun taking layups at practice, KL Chouinard of the Hawks' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bembry is expected back around mid-to-late November while recovering from a fractured right wrist. While he's not projected to play a massive role for the team, his return could mean fewer minutes for the likes of Luke Babbitt, who has been averaging a career-high 18.4 minutes per game this season.

Bembry had surgery Tuesday to repair a fractured right wrist and is expected to be out for 4-to-6 weeks.
EDGE Analysis
After being a last-minute addition to the Hawks' injury report last Friday, surgery will leave Bembry sidelined for at least a month. As a reserve option on the wing, Bembry's absence likely won't have too much of an impact on the Hawks' rotation, but it likely means Luke Babbitt could see more minutes with starters Kent Bazemore and Taurean Prince potentially shouldering an even heavier load.

Bembry has been diagnosed with a wrist fracture, Michael Cunningham of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports. He will be evaluated Monday to determine a course of action.
EDGE Analysis
Bembry saw 18 minutes during the team's opener, so this news has significant implications. A timetable for a return has yet to be determined, though it seems safe to assume he'll be out through Monday, which is when he'll be further evaluated by doctors. In his absence, Malcolm Delaney, Taurean Prince and Luke Babbitt all seem like candidates to see additional run.

Bembry is questionable to play in Friday's game against the Hornets due to a right wrist contusion, KL Chouinard of Hawks.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Given Bembry's last-minute addition to the Hawks' injury report, he'll likely be a game-time decision for Friday's contest. Chances are the injury isn't too serious, but if he is ruled out, Luke Babbitt could see more minutes off the bench for Atlanta.

Bembry (triceps) finished Friday's preseason matchup against the Pistons with two points (0-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, four assists, one steal and two turnovers across 19 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Bembry had yet to take part in the preseason while recovering from a right tricep strain, so Friday's game marked his debut. That being said, Bembry clearly showed some rust in his first action, missing all four of his shot attempts. He'll have another few tune-up contests prior to the regular-season opener to iron out his shooting woes, though Bembry is still buried fairly deep on the team's wing depth chart, so he likely won't receive significant minutes most nights during the upcoming season.

Bembry (triceps) is expected to play in his first preseason game against the Pistons on Friday, Marc J. Spears of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bembry missed Wednesday's preseason game with a lingering right tricep strain. Once the regular season begins, Bembry is likely to remain behind Taurean Prince and Kent Bazemore on the depth chart.

Bembry (triceps) won't play during Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers, KL Chouinard of Hawks.com reports.
