Gueye notched three points (1-3 FG, 1-2 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one block across 15 minutes during Friday's 123-114 overtime Play-In Game loss to the Heat.
Despite starting, Gueye received less playing time than Caris LeVert, Georges Niang and Terance Mann in Friday's season-ending overtime loss. Gueye spent a large portion of the 2024-25 campaign in the G League but became a significant part of the Hawks' rotation once Jalen Johnson (shoulder) went down with a season-ending injury. Gueye averaged 6.0 points, 4.2 rebounds and 1.0 blocks in 33 regular-season appearances, including 28 starts.

Gueye totaled 12 points (5-5 FG, 2-5 FT), four rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 26 minutes during Tuesday's 120-95 Play-In Game loss to the Magic.
Gueye was a bright spot in a disappointing overall showing from the Hawks. The forward offers solid per-minute upside in fantasy, but he's seen just 21.4 minutes over his last five outings. In that span, Gueye has posted averages of 7.2 points, 8.6 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.0 blocks on 56.5 percent shooting from the field.

Rotowire
Gueye notched two points (1-4 FG, 0-3 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and three blocks over 17 minutes during Sunday's 122-114 loss to the Nets.
Gueye posted a dud of a fantasy line Sunday, but his fantasy managers should consider cutting him some slack. Over his last seven outings, Gueye has been a top-100 fantasy player in nine-category formats in just 19.2 minutes with 7.4 points, 3.7 rebounds, 1.0 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.7 blocks.

Hawks' Mouhamed Gueye: Back with parent club
Rotowire
The Hawks recalled Gueye from the G League's College Park Skyhawks on Monday.
Gueye will rejoin the Hawks for Monday's game in Orlando after he had been assigned to the G League ahead of Saturday's 125-111 win over the Wizards. The Hawks chose to hold the second-year big man out Saturday because he had already seen significant playing time in both of the previous two days, as he logged 34 minutes for College Park in Thursday's win over the Birmingham Squadron before joining Atlanta and producing 15 points, 12 rebounds, four blocks and two steals in 23 minutes in Friday's win over the Bucks. In the wake of his big performance Friday, Gueye may have made a case for a more permanent spot in the rotation, though he likely won't be in line for major minutes in Monday's game in any case since the Hawks have all of their key forwards and centers available aside from Jalen Johnson (shoulder).

Hawks' Mouhamed Gueye: Drops 11 points in spot start
Rotowire
Gueye racked up 11 points (5-11 FG, 1-4 3Pt), seven rebounds and one block in 22 minutes during Tuesday's 100-96 loss to Houston.
Gueye was unexpectedly named a starter Tuesday, filling in for Zaccharie Risacher, who was resting on the second night of a back-to-back. It was the first start of Gueye's career and just the fourth time he has appeared in a game all season. There is no reason to think he will step into a consistent role assuming the Hawks can stay relatively healthy.

Hawks' Mouhamed Gueye: Cleared to play
Rotowire
Hawks general manager Landry Fields said Monday that Gueye (hip) will be ready for training camp this week, Kevin Chouinard of the Hawks' official site reports.
Gueye had a very quiet rookie season for the Hawks, playing 11 regular-season games with averages of 2.4 points, 2.1 rebounds and 1.6 blocks. With Atlanta's considerable depth at center, Gueye is unlikely to crack the rotation to open the new campaign.
