The Hawks are without Zaccharie Risacher for Friday’s game, opening up a spot in the starting lineup. Krejčí will fill the void, and he’s worth streaming in deep leagues, especially for those needing three-point production.

While Krejčí’s production has not been consistent enough to make him a factor in fantasy basketball, he’s had his moments. The 19 points scored on Sunday were the most in a game for Krejčí since November 22, when he dropped 21 on the Pelicans. Rostered in five percent of Yahoo! leagues, he has been close to a top-100 player over the past two weeks. However, with Trae Young (knee) returning to practice next week and the Hawks being off until Thursday, there’s no need to add Krejčí following his showing against the 76ers.

Krejčí provided some serious punch off the bench for Atlanta as they picked up another impressive road win, knocking down seven of 10 from beyond the arc. The 25-year-old three-point specialist is shooting an unreal 50 percent from distance on nearly six treys per-game through 13 games. He won’t sustain that sublime rate for long but he’s clearly one of the deadlier heat-check bench options in the game at this point.

With Zaccharie Risacher (hip) sidelined after taking a hard fall in Sunday’s game, Krejčí will get his first start of the season. He has been red-hot from deep recently and will see a boost in minutes and shot attempts as part of the starting unit, making him worth streaming.

Injuries opened the door for Krejčí to return to the rotation a few games ago, and he made the most of the opportunity. That earned him more playing time, and he’s stayed hot over the last four games. During this stretch, he is averaging 19 points and 4.8 three-pointers per game while shooting 63.4 percent from the floor. Until Trae Young (knee) is back, Krejčí appears to be worth rostering in deeper formats and is making a push to be a standard-league option.

While most of the Hawks’ regulars were back in the lineup for Monday’s game, Krejčí was the standout against the Clippers. He played 30 minutes, finishing with career-highs in points and three-pointers. He has hit double digits in minutes in five straight games, and that may remain the case until Trae Young returns from his knee injury. However, Monday’s performance is not enough to make Krejčí a player worth adding anytime soon in redraft leagues.

Krejci is the lone NBA player on Czechia’s team, and he was the leading scorer, but this wasn’t a dominant performance for him. Krejci will continue to carry the offensive load for them throughout Eurobasket, but it won’t change his status as a reserve in Atlanta next season.

Krejci made the move back into the starting unit in place of Mouhamed Gueye, who wasn’t in the rotation at all on Thursday. Krejci hasn’t been a great fantasy option as a reserve, but when he has started this year, he has been productive. His 14 points were the most that he has had in a game since January, and he was able to provide some value in other categories with the increased opportunity. Atlanta only has one more game with week, but with a four-game week coming up, Krejci could hold some value.

Krejci will replace Mouhamed Gueye in the starting unit, and while Gueye has been a fixture of Atlanta’s starting lineup since before the All-Star break, he hasn’t seen the workload that an NBA starter usually does. Krejci should be closer to typical starters minutes, and he did have an effective stretch as a starter in January, which gives him some upside if he remains in this role.

After missing a month due to a lumbar fracture, Krejci was able to suit up against Philadelphia. It wasn’t a spectacular return to the rotation, but it was encouraging to see him back on the floor. He had been playing well prior to his injury, but with Atlanta’s trade deadline additions all shining, it’s difficult to imagine a scenario where Krejci contributes standard league value consistently, especially when Trae Young and Caris LeVert return to the rotation.

Krejci has been out since February 10 with a non-displaced lumbar fracture, but is set to return Monday against the 76ers after being listed as questionable. His return coincides with the Hawks getting thinned out at the point guard position with Trae Young (quad) and Caris LeVert (finger) both ruled out already. Krejci, Terance Mann and Keaton Wallace should all see increased minutes, giving them fantasy appeal in deeper formats.

Krejci hasn’t played since February 10, and it’s unclear when he’ll be back. Mann has averaged 12 points across 25.5 minutes over his last six games, and he should handle a similar workload on Saturday.

Krejci is closing in on a return to action after missing nearly one month with a non-displaced lumbar fracture. While he may be back in the rotation once cleared, the Hawks’ rotation is much deeper on the wings than in the immediate aftermath of the trade deadline. There’s no need to rush to add Krejci in most fantasy leagues.
