After being forced to the injury list since the opener of the 2024-25 NBA Regular Season, Bogdan Bogdanovic will sit out at least one more month.
The Atlanta Hawks updated his status on Tuesday, noting a non-surgical procedure. After lasting 28 minutes and scoring eight points in a winning effort against the Brooklyn Nets in State Farm Arena on October 23, he was sidelined with right hamstring tendinopathy.
The 32-year-old Serbian shooting guard will be re-evaluated in approximately four weeks, as noted by the franchise based in Atlanta.
Coming off a busy offseason, representing Serbia in the 2024 Olympic Games, Bogdanovic won a bronze medal, before focusing on preparations for his eighth NBA campaign and fifth as a member of the Hawks.
Vit Krejci is also out
After an early exit from the home game opposite the Washington Wizards on Monday, Czech Vit Krejci will be on the injury list for at least two weeks, before being re-evaluated. The 24-year-old guard suffered a right adductor strain.
In more injury news concerning the Hawks, 21-year-old Kobe Bufkin (right shoulder subluxation) was sidelined for at least four weeks and 21-year-old Dyson Daniels (right hip flexor strain) is considered day-to-day.
With the aforementioned players listed as out for the team coached by Quin Snyder, 26-year-old De’Andre Hunter (right knee inflammation) is questionable to play against the Washington Wizards in Capital One Arena on Wednesday.
At 2-2, the Hawks are tied for fifth in the standings of the Eastern Conference.
