Kris Dunn has progressed in his rehabilitation from right ankle surgery to the point that the Hawks guard is skipping, jumping and spot shooting, the team announced Thursday.

Dunn has not played this season after signing as a free agent. Arthroscopic surgery was performed Dec. 29 at the Hospital of Special Surgery in New York to remove loose cartilage in his ankle.

According to the team, there will be a review of Dunn’s status in two weeks.
