Scott is averaging 12.3 points and 3.7 rebounds during 16.3 minutes on the court this season. Scott is a more than capable backup to Paul Millsap but his minutes will be curbed as long as he continues to come off the bench. As for now, the 26-year-old is on the fringe of having justified ownership in standard leagues.

Scott scored 20 points (8-11 FG, 4-6 3P) with four rebounds in 21 minutes off the bench Wednesday. His hot preseason shooting carried over into the regular season. Scott won't see enough minutes to be a consistent fantasy asset, but he's capable of the occasional eruption.

Hawks restricted FA Mike Scott is reportedly considering a lucrative three-year offer from CSKA Moscow. Scott prefers to stay in the NBA, according to Adrian Wojnarowski, but he may be lured overseas by the promise of a payday he couldn't approach in the U.S. He's coming off a solid 2013-14 season in which he averaged 9.6 points on 47.9 percent shooting, but Atlanta may not be inclined to keep him on more than a minimum contract.

Rival teams think restricted free agent Mike Scott can be theirs with a strong offer sheet. The Hawks are reportedly trying to save cap space, so teams believe that Scott can be theirs if they give him a big enough contract that Atlanta won't want to match. Scott averaged 9.6 points, 0.8 three-pointers, and 3.6 boards last season in 18.5 minutes per game, so the 25-year-old's fantasy upside is a bit limited unless he lands on a team who is willing to give him a lot more run.

Mike Scott said that his priority this summer will be improving his perimeter game, dribbling and ability to defend guards. The Hawks' switching defense requires Scott to keep up with smaller and quicker players on a regular basis, and his 'stretch PF' role means that "you have to be able to handle the ball ... I'm not totally comfortable with it yet." Scott hopes to return with the Hawks next season and they're in a position to retain him as a restricted free agent.

Mike Scott hit 5-of-6 three pointers in the second quarter and finished with 17 points on 6-of-9 shooting as the Hawks took Game 5 in Indiana on Monday. There were others that arguably contributed more for the Hawks, but it was Scott's flurry that keyed a 41-19 second quarter for Atlanta that the Pacers could never recover from. Shelvin Mack scored 20 points with five assists off the bench, Kyle Korver went 5-of-10 from deep for 16 points, and Paul Millsap went for 18 and eight with four blocks. The Hawks head to Indy up 3-2 with a chance to take down the No. 1 seed on Thursday.

Mike Scott hit 8-of-13 shots and a 3-pointer for 17 points, four rebounds, four assists and a steal in Wednesday's meaningless win over the Bucks. Scott could have some playoff value for the Hawks, but will come off the bench with everyone healthy. DeMarre Carroll scored 13, Jeff Teague had 11, Cartier Martin had 14, Mike Muscala had 15 and Shelvin Mack had 11 points, as the Hawks gave the bench guys some run tonight.

Mike Scott hit just 8-of-23 shots for 20 points, six rebounds and one three in Monday's loss. Scott is always a good bet to touch the ball a lot when the Hawks trot out a depleted lineup. Give him a look, but don't expect much in the way of versatility or efficiency if Wednesday's lineup looks a lot like tonight.

Mike Scott will start against the Bobcats on Monday. Paul Millsap (rest) isn't going to play which opens up a ton of playing time for Scott. The Hawks have used him next to Millsap on numerous occasions, so he should be a focal point for their offense. In fact, when Millsap has been off the floor in the past month, Scott has a usage rate of 30.7 percent. He's a nice plug-and-play tonight.
