Hunter (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Lakers, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hunter has missed 19 straight games, but this is the first time he's listed as questionable since undergoing a non-surgical procedure on his right knee at the end of December. If he doesn't make his return Tuesday, Hunter could be available Friday versus Phoenix. However, the fifth-year forward would presumably have restrictions during his first few games back given the lengthy absence.

Hunter will be re-evaluated this week prior to ramping up physical activity amid recovery from a non-surgical procedure to reduce inflammation in his right knee, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
It was announced on Christmas Day that Hunter would be shut down for two weeks to address his knee inflammation, and his 14-day mark came Monday with no update on his status. However, he was spotted getting shots up Tuesday and began participating in half-court workouts late last week, per Rowland. The 26-year-old still lacks an estimated return date, but he appears to be increasing his participation in basketball activities.

The Hawks announced Monday that Hunter will undergo a non-surgical procedure Tuesday to address his right knee inflammation, and he'll be re-evaluated in two weeks.
EDGE Analysis
Hunter missed the past two games for Atlanta, and he'll now miss at least six more. With Hunter scheduled to be re-evaluated in two weeks, that means the earliest he could return is Jan. 10 against the 76ers. He's had a strong season so far, posting averages of 14.9 points, 4.1 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.9 three-pointers. Although losing Hunter is a tough blow for Atlanta, the good news is that Jalen Johnson (wrist) could be ready to return as soon as Tuesday's game against the Bulls.
