The Atlanta Hawks are currently in a state of uncertainty as they await an injury update on Jalen Johnson. In their latest game against the Toronto Raptors, Johnson injured his left shoulder in the first half and was ruled out for the remainder of the game.

The Hawks have a protected first-round pick from the Sacramento Kings, an unprotected pick from the Los Angeles Lakers and a $23.5 million trade exception from Murray’s subsequent trade to the New Orleans Pelicans. However, the Hawks are also just $1.3 million from the luxury tax line and historically haven’t been willing to go over.

Atlanta forward Jalen Johnson plans to have shoulder surgery and miss the remainder of the season, a major blow to the struggling Hawks' efforts to remain in the Eastern Conference playoff race.
