The Atlanta Hawks will be without a valuable offensive player for about a month as guard Bogdan Bogdanovic is dealing with a hamstring injury, the team announced on Tuesday.
Bogdanovic, 32, hasn’t played since the season opener and underwent a non-surgical procedure on Tuesday. He will be re-evaluated in approximately four weeks.
The eight-year veteran and Serbia native is a key piece of Atlanta’s bench, averaging 15.6 points, 3.5 rebounds and 3.1 assists in his five seasons with the Hawks. With Atlanta, he’s been a 39.1 percent 3-point shooter.
Including his first three seasons in the NBA with the Sacramento Kings (2017-20), Bogdanovic has averaged 14.7 points, 3.4 rebounds and 3.3 assists in 450 games (193 starts). He’s a career 38.4 percent 3-point shooter.
The Phoenix Suns selected him No. 27 overall in the 2014 NBA Draft and traded his rights to Sacramento two years later.
