Daniels (ankle) is now questionable for Monday's game against the Timberwolves, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
With Daniels being a late addition to Atlanta's injury report with ankle soreness Monday, the Hawks' backcourt could be significantly shorthanded in the absence of Trae Young (hamstring). Bogdan Bogdanovic and Garrison Mathews could be in store for amplified roles against Minnesota.

Daniels put up 22 points (8-14 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-5 FT), eight rebounds, five assists and four steals in 37 minutes during Thursday's 122-119 loss to the Raptors.
EDGE Analysis
The wing has been active defensively all season, but he's also found his groove on offense recently, averaging 18.6 points while shooting 56.9 percent from the field over his last five games. His offensive load has certainly benefitted from Zaccharie Risacher's (adductor) absence. Still, if he continues to impress, there's a chance that his value on defense will garner him further opportunity on both ends than the more one-sided Risacher, even once the latter returns. Daniels will look to stay hot in a rematch with the Raptors on Saturday.

Daniels finished with 20 points (10-21 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 0-1 FT), 10 rebounds, two assists and two steals across 33 minutes during Wednesday's 114-104 loss to the Pistons.
EDGE Analysis
Trae Young had a subpar performance Wednesday, but Daniels stepped up and was impressive on both ends of the court. This was his second double-double of the season and the second time he reached the 20-point mark over his last three outings. The scoring exploits don't stop there, however, as Daniels has also scored in double digits in eight of his last nine outings, averaging 14.8 points per contest in that stretch.

Daniels provided 23 points (11-14 FG, 1-3 3Pt), four rebounds, four assists and one steal across 40 minutes during Saturday's 119-115 overtime win over the Celtics.
EDGE Analysis
The 23 points were his best scoring effort since Nov. 15, when he dropped 25 against the Wizards. Daniels also saw his streak of games with multiple steals end at seven, and through eight contests to begin January the third-year guard is averaging 14.0 points, 4.6 boards, 3.9 assists, 2.9 steals and 1.0 threes.

Daniels closed Wednesday's 110-94 win over Chicago with 18 points (7-16 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-7 FT), eight rebounds, three assists, one block and three steals in 34 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
The 21-year-old is having a career year as a starter in Atlanta. He's established himself as one of the league's best defenders, averaging an NBA-high 3.1 steals. He's also getting it done offensively, posting a career-high 13.0 points per game with his best efficiency yet from the field (45.0 percent) and from three (31.6 percent).

Daniels and the Hawks will not play against the Rockets on Saturday, as the game has been postponed due to severe weather and hazardous icy conditions in the Atlanta area.
EDGE Analysis
The Hawks are set to host the Suns on Tuesday, but the NBA has yet to announce when Saturday's game will be rescheduled. Regardless, it is worth monitoring the situation in case the hazardous weather conditions also cause Tuesday's matchup to be postponed.

Daniels racked up 13 points (6-12 FG, 1-2 3Pt), four rebounds, three assists and three steals over 36 minutes during Thursday's 123-115 loss to Phoenix.
EDGE Analysis
Daniels is on a hot streak defensively, recording multiple steals in five straight games, though for someone averaging a league-high 3.1 steals, it's nothing too out of the ordinary. The rest of his game waxes and wanes, but he's still averaging a solid 12.4 points, 4.2 rebounds and 4.2 assists during this stretch.

Daniels supplied 16 points (7-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt), six rebounds, seven assists, two blocks and two steals across 35 minutes during Tuesday's 124-121 win over the Jazz.
EDGE Analysis
Daniels made his presence felt on both ends of the court Tuesday and racked up stats left and right, finishing with two or more tallies in each of the six major categories. Daniels has been a stat-stuffing machine for the Hawks, and even though he gets most of his praises for his work on the defensive end, he's also thriving on the offensive end of the court. He's scored in double digits in his last three games and six of his last seven.

Daniels (illness) had nine points (4-17 FG, 1-7 3Pt), six assists, five rebounds and three steals across 30 minutes during Wednesday's 139-120 loss to the Nuggets.
EDGE Analysis
Daniels returned to action following a two-game absence streak due to an illness. The 21-year-old struggled to find his rhythm on the offensive end, though he logged a steal for the sixth game in a row in a well-rounded effort. Daniels has averaged 10.6 points, 4.8 rebounds, 4.4 assists and 3.8 steals across 30.8 minutes per game in his last five outings. He has also shot 38.1 percent from deep in that span.

Daniels (illness) is available for Wednesday's game against the Nuggets, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
After missing the past two games with an illness, Daniels is ready to return to Atlanta's lineup Wednesday. The disruptive wing averaged 12.1 points, 5.0 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 3.3 steals in 33.3 minutes over 10 games in December, and Daniels figures to handle his usual allotment of playing time as well as some added usage in the absence of Jalen Johnson (shoulder).
