Hunter ended Wednesday's 135-124 loss to the Magic with a team-high 25 points (6-14 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 9-10 FT), six rebounds and three assists in 38 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
The Hawks came out very flat, losing the first quarter 50-22, and while Hunter led the comeback attempt from there, his efforts weren't enough to close the gap. The fourth-year forward has been productive since returning from a four-game absence due to a hip strain, and over the last three contests, he's averaging 20.0 points, 3.3 boards, 2.7 threes and 1.7 assists.

Hunter (hip) finished with 16 points (7-13 FG, 2-4 3Pt), three rebounds and two assists in 26 minutes during Sunday's 123-122 overtime win over the Bulls.
EDGE Analysis
Back in action after a four-game absence due to a right hip strain, Hunter appeared to be on a minute restriction, given that he started but didn't play the overtime period despite not dealing with any foul trouble. The Hawks could look to hold Hunter out of the second half of the back-to-back set Monday in Memphis (or limit his minutes if he plays), but the 25-year-old forward shouldn't face any major restrictions in the games that follow.

Hunter (hip) is available for Sunday's matchup against Chicago, Kevin Chouinard of the Hawks' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hunter has missed four straight games and was initially deemed questionable for Sunday's matchup due to a hip injury. He's started all 21 of his appearances this season, posting 14.9 points and 4.0 rebounds in 30.8 minutes per contest, but the fourth-year forward may be limited during his first game action in December.

Hunter (hip) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Bulls, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hunter held a questionable tag for Friday's game versus the Nets as well before being ruled out, so his designation doesn't reveal much regarding his chances to suit up. The Hawks should clarify his status before the opening tip Sunday evening.

Hunter (hip) won't suit up Friday against the Nets, Lauren L. Williams of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
EDGE Analysis

Hunter (hip) is questionable to play in Friday's game against the Nets, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hunter could return for Friday's game after missing the last three games with a right hip flexor strain. Hunter will likely replace AJ Griffin in the starting lineup when he retakes the court. The 24-year-old forward was able to practice in a limited capacity Thursday, so he is likely to return soon, if not Friday.

Hunter (hip) wasn't a full participant in Thursday's practice, Lauren L. Williams of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Hunter will miss at least a week due to a right hip flexor strain.
EDGE Analysis
Hunter played for only seven minutes against Orlando on Wednesday before suffering his injury. The forward got an MRI on Thursday, and the Hawks confirmed Hunter will miss at least the next week of action. The injury will force the 25-year-old to miss Atlanta's matchups against Denver, Oklahoma City and New York. With John Collins (ankle) also set to miss time, expect Jarrett Culver and Vit Krejci to see an increase in minutes.

Hunter (thigh) won't play in Friday's game versus the Nuggets due to a right hip flexor strain, Brad Rowland of Locked on Hawks reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hunter logged just seven minutes in Wednesday's game versus the Magic before leaving. Depending on the severity of the issue, Hunter could be looking at some additional games on the sidelines as well. However, no official timetable has been placed on his return at this juncture. Jarrett Culver and Vit Krejci both saw notable upticks in minutes after Hunter and John Collins (ankle) -- who is also out Friday -- left the game Wednesday and could see expanded run again versus Denver.

EDGE Analysis
It's unknown at the moment if Hunter aggravated his previous injury, one which tabbed him questionable heading into the matchup. Nonetheless, the forward is officially out for the remainder of the contest versus the Magic.
