The Atlanta Hawks visit the Milwaukee Bucks on Sunday night with several players unavailable. Kingston Flemings has been ruled out with a lumbar strain, while Keshon Gilbert, Mouhamed Gueye, Asa Newell, and Henri Veesaar are also sidelined.

Milwaukee will be without Ousmane Dieng, while the rest of its listed players are either available or not included on the injury report.

Kingston Flemings' injury status vs. Bucks

As per the NBA's injury report, Flemings will not play against Milwaukee because of a lumbar strain. The rookie point guard left Friday's loss to the Chicago Bulls after playing 17 minutes and did not return.

His absence leaves a hole in Atlanta's backcourt rotation. Flemings had earned a starting role after beginning the season on the bench, and his playmaking will be missed. CJ McCollum is expected to have a bigger role and could return to the starting lineup.

McCollum scored 20 points and recorded five assists against Chicago. The Hawks will need another productive performance from him, while Aaron Wiggins could also receive additional minutes. Two-way guard RayJ Dennis is another possible option for playing time.

Atlanta will also be without Gilbert, who is recovering from left knee inflammation, Gueye, Newell, and Veesaar. Jock Landale is available despite wearing a face mask.

Milwaukee has lost nine straight games and will look to end that run against Atlanta. The Hawks, meanwhile, are trying to bounce back after their disappointing loss to Chicago.
