Atlanta Hawks rookie Seth Lundy will not play in Monday’s game against the Celtics despite being called up from the G League earlier in the day. The news comes from Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network.
Lundy has been battling a back injury since February 24th, forcing him to miss games at both the NBA and G League levels. While his call-up suggested a potential return, the Hawks opted for caution with Lundy.
This decision likely indicates Lundy’s back isn’t fully healed. The Hawks are currently dealing with a significant injury list, with seven other players unavailable for Monday’s game. Despite the shorthanded roster, the coaching staff decided Lundy needs more time to recover.
Fantasy basketball managers should continue to monitor Lundy’s status for upcoming games.
