Okongwu underwent a non-surgical procedure Tuesday to address ongoing inflammation in his left big toe and will be re-evaluated in approximately four weeks, Lauren L. Williams of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports. Okongwu hasn't played since March 21 due to an injury to his left big toe. Unless the Hawks can come out of the Play-In and go on a miraculous playoff run, the 22-year-old big man has essentially been shut down for the rest of the season. Okongwu will end the 2023-24 regular season averaging 10.2 points, 6.8 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.1 blocks in 25.5 minutes across 55 appearances, including eight starts.

Onyeka Okongwu Latest News
Out at least four weeks
Okongwu underwent a non-surgical procedure Tuesday to address ongoing inflammation in his left big toe and will be re-evaluated in approximately four weeks, Lauren L. Williams of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports. Okongwu hasn't played since March 21 due to an injury to his left big toe. Unless the Hawks can come out of the Play-In and go on a miraculous playoff run, the 22-year-old big man has essentially been shut down for the rest of the season. Okongwu will end the 2023-24 regular season averaging 10.2 points, 6.8 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.1 blocks in 25.5 minutes across 55 appearances, including eight starts.
Remains out Wednesday
Okongwu (toe) is listed as out for Wednesday's game against the Hornets. Okongwu hasn't played since March 21 after he aggravated his left big toe sprain. He had been scheduled for a re-evaluation earlier this week, but the Hawks have yet to provide an update on his status.
Re-evaluated in 7-to-10 days
Okongwu (toe) will be re-evaluated in 7-to-10 days. Okongwu has missed the past six games, and now he'll miss at least four more. He's been cleared to resume basketball activities, and based on this re-evaluation timeline, he could potentially return as soon as April 9 against the Heat.
Remains sidelined
Okongwu (toe) is out for Monday's game against the Bulls, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports. Okongwu will extend his streak of missed games to six due to a left toe sprain. Bruno Fernando will likely continue to see extended run in his absence.
Won't play Saturday
Okongwu (toe) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Bucks, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports. Okongwu will miss a fifth straight game due to a left toe sprain. He's made only two appearances since Feb. 12, so even if he gets the green light soon, the backup big will likely face heavy restrictions.
Still out against Boston
Okongwu (toe) won't play in Thursday's game versus the Celtics, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports. Okongwu's absence streak will extend to four games Thursday due to a left toe sprain. Bruno Fernando will likely continue to receive increased opportunities in his absence. Okongwu's next chance to suit up is Saturday's matchup with Milwaukee.
Won't play Wednesday
Okongwu (toe) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers. Okongwu recently aggravated his left toe injury and will be unavailable for a third consecutive matchup. It's not yet clear whether he'll be available for the second half of the back-to-back set Thursday against the Celtics.
Ruled out for Monday
Okongwu (toe) will be inactive Monday against Boston, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports. Okongwu will miss his second consecutive game after returning from a 13-game absence due to his ongoing toe issue. Atlanta has little incentive to risk an aggravation, however, and Okongwu's next opportunity to take the court comes Wednesday against Toronto. The Hawks are 7-8 across 15 contests without Okongwu this season.
Officially out Saturday
Okongwu (toe) has been ruled out for Saturday's matchup with the Hornets. No surprise here, as Okongwu went into the game with a doubtful designation. He had played in two straight games since returning from a 13-game absence, so it looks like the Hawks are erring on the side of caution with their big man. His next opportunity to suit up will come Monday versus the Celtics.
