Dealing with back tightness
Hawkins (back) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Atlanta.
Analysis
Hawkins is dealing with lower back tightness, and he is in jeopardy of missing his first game of the regular season. He injured his back during Friday's game against the Pacers, which caused him to visit the locker room a couple times, and he finished that contest with 23 points, four rebounds and one assist over 37 minutes.

Goes for 23 points in win
Hawkins notched 23 points (7-17 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 7-8 FT), four rebounds and one assist in 37 minutes during Friday's 125-118 win over the Pacers.
Analysis
Hawkins brushed off a mid-game locker room trip, scoring at least 20 points for the third time in the past five games. New Orleans is dealing with a number of injuries to key personnel at the moment, affording Hawkins a consistent role. He is currently averaging 17.3 points and 2.5 three-pointers in 32.1 minutes per game, making Hawkins a key piece of the team's lineup for the time being.

Returns Friday
Hawkins (back) has returned to Friday's game against the Pacers, Jim Eichenhofer of the Pelicans' official site reports.
Analysis
Hawkins posted eight points (2-9 FG), one rebound and one assist in 21 first-half minutes, but his back injury flared up, forcing Brandon Boston to start the second half. It appears like Hawkins just needed some time with the training staff before getting the green light, and he should get ample usage the rest of the way, as the Pelicans came into the contest very shorthanded.

Questionable to return Friday
Hawkins is questionable to return to Friday's game against the Pacers due to low back tightness.
Analysis
With the Pelicans shorthanded, Hawkins tried to play through back pain, but it looks like it flared up on him. Hawkins posted eight points (2-9 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), one rebound and one assist in 21 first-half minutes. Brandon Boston started the second half in Hawkins' absence.

Good to go Friday
Hawkins (back) is available for Friday's game against the Pacers.
Analysis
As expected, Hawkins will play through back spasms for the shorthanded Pelicans. With CJ McCollum (thigh), Dejounte Murray (hand) and Herbert Jones (shoulder) all out, Hawkins is expected to start and have the green light. He scored 23 points (9-21 FG) in 39 minutes during Wednesday's loss to Golden State.

Expected to play Friday
Coach Willie Green said Hawkins (back) is expected to play in Friday's game versus the Pacers, Christian Clark of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Analysis
Hawkins is dealing with back spasms, though he should play through the issue in a depleted backcourt. The 22-year-old is set for an increased role with CJ McCollum (thigh), Dejounte Murray (hand) and Herbert Jones (shoulder) all out for an extended period of time. Hawkins has averaged 16.2 points, 5.0 rebounds and 1.2 assists across 31.2 minutes per game over five regular-season appearances.

Back on injury report
Hawkins is questionable for Friday's game against the Pacers due to lower back spasms.
Analysis
Hawkins entered the starting lineup Wednesday against the Warriors and fared well, but his status is now in jeopardy for Friday. The UConn product dealt with back spasms earlier in the week and was able to push through to suit up, so it appears he'll have a decent chance to do so again Friday barring any setbacks.

Paces team with 23 points
Hawkins chipped in 23 points (9-21 FG, 4-14 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds and one assist in 39 minutes during Wednesday's 104-89 loss to the Warriors.
Analysis
Although Hawkins began the day on the injury report, he stepped in and took advantage of CJ McCollum's (leg) untimely absence. The New Orleans backcourt has devolved into a mess, beginning with an injury to Dejounte Murray, who was expected to rule the roost with McCollum alongside him. With McCollum, Herbert Jones (shoulder) and Trey Murphy (hamstring) unavailable, the team will need to depend on Hawkins and Jose Alvarado to assume bigger roles. The results of McCollum's MRI will determine the path for Hawkins going forward.
31 October 2024
In starting lineup
Hawkins is part of the first unit for Wednesday's game against the Warriors, Christian Clark of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Analysis
With the Pelicans missing several key pieces due to injury, Hawkins will step into the starting five for the first time this season. Hawkins is averaging 14.5 points and 5.3 rebounds across 29.3 minutes per game in 2024-25.
31 October 2024
Cleared to play
Hawkins (back) has been upgraded to available for Wednesday's game against the Warriors.
Analysis
Hawkins was considered a game-time decision Wednesday with lower back spasms, but he's been given the green light to suit up. With CJ McCollum (adductor), Herbert Jones (shoulder) and Trey Murphy (hamstring) inactive, Hawkins should see a full allotment of minutes Wednesday. Through four games, Hawkins is averaging 14.5 points, 5.3 rebounds and 1.3 assists across 29.3 minutes.
