Matthews logged five points (2-2 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 0-1 FT), five rebounds and two blocks across 14 minutes Thursday in the Hawks' 124-97 loss to the Raptors.
EDGE Analysis
Matthews had missed the Hawks' final four games before the All-Star break due to an illness, but he was cleared to resume playing when Atlanta kicked off its second-half schedule last week. However, Matthews hadn't been included in head coach Quin Snyder's rotation for the first three games out of the All-Star break before he got some run Thursday. It's unclear if Snyder plans on keeping Matthews in the rotation moving forward, but even if he does, the 37-year-old likely won't see his playing time dramatically increase from the 14 minutes he received versus Toronto.

Matthews (illness) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against Houston, Kevin Chouinard of the Hawks' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Matthews is set to miss his 18th game -- out of a possible 21 -- since the beginning of January, though if he were available, he wouldn't have carried a lot of fantasy appeal as a spot-up shooter who rarely sees the floor. His next chance to feature will come against the Bulls on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Matthews will not play in Saturday's game versus the Warriors due to right calf management, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Saturday is the second half of a back-to-back set for the Hawks, and the team will ultimately opt to err on the side of caution with the veteran wing. With Matthews and Saddiq Bey (ankle) out, Garrison Mathews and Bogdan Bogdanovic could see increased minutes.
