Onyeka Okongwu recalled to Hawks from G League

Thursday morning, the Atlanta Hawks announced that second-year center Onyeka Okongwu was recalled to the Hawks from the College Park Skyhawks. Okongwu had been working and playing with the Skyhawks as he ramped up his rehab from his offseason shoulder surgery.

Okongwu was assigned to College Park on Dec. 6. He appeared in one game, recording 10 points, 15 rebounds, two blocks and two steals in 24 minutes of play for the Skyhawks. The 2020 No. 6 overall pick is now set to return to the Hawks, where he will presumably have a great shot to work himself right into the rotation whenever he is activated.
