NBC SportsVit Krejci (back) will not return to Monday's game against the Magic.

Krejci was injured when Jonathan Isaac challenged him from behind on a dunk, with the Hawks guard falling flat on his back. He's been ruled out for the rest of the game with a lower back contusion. With Larry Nance (knee) also out, the Hawks could be without two rotation players for Wednesday's game against the Knicks. If needed, new additions Georges Niang, Caris LeVert, and Terance Mann can absorb some of those minutes.

NBC SportsThe Hawks will start Trae Young, Dyson Daniels, Zaccharie Risacher, Mouhamed Gueye and Onyeka Okongwu against Orlando on Monday.

Gueye was with the College Park Skyhawks during Atlanta's last game, but he will get the starting nod in their Monday matchup with the Magic. Gueye had 15 points, 12 rebounds, two steals and four blocks in 23 minutes on Friday. Georges Niang started on Saturday, and he should still play a significant role off the bench.
