Dewayne Dedmon will miss the rest of the Atlanta Hawks' season after suffering a left ankle injury.

Dedmon is scheduled to undergo a non-surgical procedure to alleviate soreness in his left ankle.

Dedmon is averging 10.8 points and 7.5 rebounds per game this season.

The Atlanta Hawks have signed forward Deyonta Davis to a second 10-day contract.

Davis was signed to his first 10-day contract on March 19, 2019. He has appeared in two games with the Hawks.

Miles Plumlee suffered a left knee injury during practice on March 11, as he was working his way back following a non-surgical procedure on January 7. 

Plumlee underwent a medical examination and MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) on March 25, which revealed a cartilage injury in his left knee. 

Plumlee is scheduled to undergo arthroscopic surgery on April 2. Plumlee is expected to be available for training camp.

Plumlee will be a free agent in 2020.

Trae Young and James Harden have been named the NBA's Players of the Week.

Young averaged 25.3 points, 11.3 assists and 4.0 rebounds as the Hawks went 2-1.

Harden averaged 44.3 points, 6.3 rebounds and 5.8 assists as the Rockets went 3-1.

Chris Paul fell to No. 4 in the 2005 NBA Draft as the Atlanta Hawks picked Marvin Williams Jr. at No. 2. Paul had expected to go to the Hawks.

"I got up at the draft," Paul said of when the second pick was about to be announced. "They pretty much told me they were picking me. I found a house (in Gwinnett County) and everything."

The Utah Jazz then picked Deron Williams at No. 3 and Paul was selected by the then-New Orleans Hornets at No. 4.

The Atlanta Hawks have agreed to sign Deyonta Davis to a 10-day contract.

Davis has been playing for the Santa Cruz Warriors of the G League.

Vince Carter has embraced his role as a mentor to the young Atlanta Hawks core of Trae Young and John Collins. 

“There’s a lot of things that come with wanting to be, ‘The Man’ of a franchise. I’ve been there for a lot of years, so I’ve seen a lot. So I’m just trying to share my wisdom, both in conversation and on the court, because I feel like in the world today you have to do a little more than just have a conversation. I like to lead by example and by showing the young guys the way," said Carter of his role as the veteran of the team.

Kent Bazemore added that he wants to lead his younger teammates by example.

“The way I choose to do it is show guys how to take care of their bodies and embrace the grind of not feeling your best and still getting your lifts in each week, proper stretching and nutrition. Everyone has their own approach to basketball, but some of those are tough to change and you’ve got to do what works for you. So I just try to show them how to do things to help them have a nice long career," said Bazemore. 

Travis Schlenk said that the Atlanta Hawks will take a careful approach in free agency as they build around a core of Trae Young, John Collins, and Kevin Huerter.

“I think what’s really important is a lot of times mistakes are made when teams go, ‘We have this cap space, we need to use it.' You can’t spend it on the wrong guy. Right? I say all the time, if you make a mistake in a draft, it doesn’t kill your franchise. Obviously you don’t want to make mistakes, but you’re talking about a two-year guaranteed contract with a small dollar amount. You make mistakes and free agents, and now you’re talking, to today’s world, a four-year contract at $25, $30 million. Those can be [killers]," said Schlenk.

Lloyd Pierce added that the Hawks can't force the next step of their evolution. 

“We feel like we’re in a position now where we feel like people are going to look at the Atlanta Hawks and say, ‘They’re onto something.' Young guys that are really good. Young culture that they’ve established that everyone loves, and that’s what we’re talking about...I don’t know what the next step is, if there’s a perfect free agent or the perfect locker room guy that can come in and help us, that’s great. But if there isn’t, we can’t force it.”

The Atlanta Hawks have signed forward B.J. Johnson to a second 10-day contract.

He was signed to his first 10-day contract on March 1.

Johnson has appeared in four games, averaging 4.3 points and 2.0 rebounds in 9.7 minutes (.538 FG%, .500 3FG%).

Vince Carter said he wants to play 1 more season in the league if a team is interested in signing him. He is currently averaging 7.1 points on a career-high 40.9% from 3 for the Hawks.

"Yeah, I think I could stretch it out one more ... I think I could give it another year, so why not? We'll see what happens," said Carter.

If he were to play next season, the 42-year-old Carter would set an NBA record by playing in 22 seasons. He would also be the first player to have played 4 decades in the league.
