Okongwu, Snell, Dunn out for Hawks’ first exhibition game

Onyeka Okongwu, Tony Snell and Kris Dunn will not play in the Hawks’ first exhibition game vs. the Magic on Friday night at State Farm Arena, per coach Lloyd Pierce.

In addition to his foot injury, Snell is not with the team and is self-isolating because he was exposed to someone who had COVID-19, but Snell has not tested positive. Okongwu is coming off a stress fracture on the sesamoid bone of his left foot, Snell is dealing with inflammation of the cuboid bone in his right foot and there is “cartilage disruption” in Dunn’s right knee.

All have been doing modified workouts and will be re-evaluated Friday, but will not yet have done enough contact work in practice to participate in a game. We’ll have a better idea of their timeline for recovery and return to games after that re-evaluation.
