Hunter finished with 26 points (9-16 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds and one assist across 30 minutes during Wednesday's 135-124 win over Cleveland.
EDGE Analysis
Hunter led the Hawks in scoring despite coming off the bench for a sixth straight appearance. Wednesday marked his best scoring performance of the 2024-25 campaign and his third time reaching the 20-point threshold this month. Hunter has proven that he can catch fire from beyond the arc at times, draining three or more triples in three of eight games so far this year.

Hunter amassed 24 points (9-15 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, one assist and one block over 25 minutes during Monday's 109-108 victory over Sacramento.
EDGE Analysis
Hunter might have played off the bench once again, but he carried the Hawks offensively in this win and led the team in scoring. Hunter has been limited to just four appearances due to an ongoing knee injury, but he's been extremely productive when available and has reached the 20-point mark in three of those contests.

Hunter is out for Sunday's game against the Trail Blazers due to right knee injury management, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hunter won't play in the first half of a back-to-back set, but since it's purely due to management, he should return for the game against the Kings on Monday. Hunter is averaging 19.3 points, 5.3 rebounds and 1.7 assists per game in three appearances (two starts) this season.

Hunter (personal/knee) scored 22 points (7-13 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 5-7 FT) and added three rebounds and one assist in 21 minutes off the bench in Friday's 129-117 win over the Wizards.
EDGE Analysis
Hunter was back in action after missing the Hawks' last 10 games due to a right knee injury and then a personal matter. The 26-year-old had started in both of his appearances prior to his recent absence, but the Hawks eased him back into the rotation in a bench role Friday, with rookie No. 1 overall pick Zaccharie Risacher retaining his spot on the top unit. While Hunter could eventually reclaim his starting spot, his playing-time upside could be capped by the presence of Risacher as well as the eventual return of Bogdan Bogdanovic (hamstring), who resumed practicing in the G League on Friday and could be cleared for game action with Atlanta at some point during the upcoming week.
