Top Wesley Matthews News

  • Hawks' Wesley Matthews: Season high in minutes

    Despite not scoring (0-3 FG, 0-3 3Pt), Matthews chipped in three rebounds and two assists across 16 minutes of action in Tuesday's 128-105 loss to the Cavaliers.

    Matthews has been elevated to one of the Hawk's primary three-and-D wings off the bench due to Jalen Johnson's (wrist) absence, but the former has not exactly provided much on the stat sheet (17 total points and just one steal over seven games). Matthews will continue to see opportunities on the court, but do not expect much from him fantasy-wise as the season progresses.

  • Hawks' Wesley Matthews: Questionable Saturday

    Matthews (calf) is questionable for Saturday's game against Miami.

    Matthews hasn't yet made his season debut due to a strained right calf, but it's encouraging that he's deemed questionable Saturday rather than being immediately ruled out. Even if he's able to suit up against the Heat, it wouldn't be surprising to see him face a minutes limit.

  • Hawks' Wesley Matthews: Out at least two weeks

    Matthews underwent an MRI on Tuesday that revealed a mild right calf strain, and he'll be re-evaluated in two weeks.

    Matthews had already been ruled out for Wednesday's regular-season opener against the Hornets, and he'll miss at least a couple of weeks to begin the 2023-24 campaign. Although his strain is considered mild, he'll likely attempt to make his regular-season debut in early-to-mid November.

  • Hawks' Wesley Matthews: Heading to Atlanta

    Matthews signed a one-year contract with the Hawks on Friday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

    Matthews (calf) isn't on the injury report for Game 5 against Miami on Wednesday.

  • Bucks' Wesley Matthews: Won't play Wednesday

    Matthews is out for Game 2 versus the Heat on Wednesday due to a right calf strain.

    Matthews missed 10 games in late Feb. and early March due to the same injury, so it's possible he re-aggravated it. The veteran forward played 18 minutes in Game 1, so his absence should result in increased playing time for Joe Ingles, Pat Connaughton and Jae Crowder. Matthews' next chance to suit up is Saturday's Game 3 when the Bucks head to Miami.

  • Bucks' Wesley Matthews: Makes first post-break appearance

    Matthews (calf) logged 10 minutes in Tuesday's 116-104 win over the Suns, finishing with two points (1-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and one rebound.

    Matthews made his first appearance since the All-Star break after sitting out nine straight games due to a right calf strain before being cleared ahead of Monday's game in Sacramento. He didn't play in the 133-124 win over the Kings while Milwaukee had all of its key rotation players available for that game save for Joe Ingles, but with Khris Middleton (rest) and Grayson Allen (foot) sitting out the second leg of the back-to-back set, the Bucks had some minutes open on the wing for Matthews. The Bucks should at least get Middleton back for their next game Thursday versus the Pacers, so it wouldn't be surprising if Matthews dropped back out of the rotation for that contest.
