2025 Fantasy Outlook
Alexander-Walker's third year in Minnesota was a major success. He appeared in all 82 regular-season games for the second consecutive year, posting averages of 9.4 points, 3.2 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.7 three-pointers in a career-high 25.3 minutes per game. He essentially shared the sixth man duties with Donte DiVincenzo, and he managed to sneak inside the top-150 for standard nine-category leagues. Highly sought after in free agency by multiple teams, including the Timberwolves, Alexander-Walker signed a four-year, $62 million contract with the Hawks as part of a sign-and-trade. The Hawks no longer have Caris LeVert, and their new addition, Luke Kennard, figures to play a minor role in the rotation. Alexander-Walker is set up to be the sixth man in Atlanta behind Trae Young and Dyson Daniels in the backcourt, filling in at both spots. Young and Daniels are both high-workload players, however, and it's fair to question if Alexander-Walker will have the same path to fantasy value that he did in Minnesota. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a four-year, $62 million contract with the Hawks in June of 2025 with a player option for the 2028-29 season. 
Drops 17 points in spot start
Alexander-Walker closed with 17 points (6-15 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds, two assists and one block in 28 minutes during Thursday's preseason loss to the Rockets.
ANALYSIS
Alexander-Walker moved into the starting lineup, replacing Dyson Daniels, who was given the night off. Alexander-Walker ended as one of four Hawks players to score double-digits, an encouraging sign following his offseason move from Minnesota. He is slated to come off the bench, likely serving as a primary backup like Luke Kennard. While he typically won't play enough to be considered in standard fantasy drafts, Alexander-Walker is certainly more than capable of producing fantasy-worthy numbers, if and when he is handed a larger role.

2019
Alexander-Walker averaged a career-high 23.4 minutes per game during the 2023-24 season, playing in all 82 regular-season games. Despite finishing outside the top 200 in standard leagues with averages of just 8.0 points, 2.0 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 0.8 steals and 1.6 three-pointers, Alexander-Walker's impact was clear for all to see. He shot a career-best 39.1 percent from the perimeter, something he will need to continue to develop to ensure his role is safe, especially after the addition of Donte DiVincenzo. Now a legitimate title threat, the Timberwolves will need their second unit clicking on all cylinders. Alexander-Walker is slated to play a similar role again this upcoming season, limiting his value to slightly deeper formats. However, he is someone to keep an eye on in standard leagues, especially if Mike Conley or Anthony Edwards gets injured.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Will be utilized next to Daniels
Hawks general manager Onsi Saleh said Friday that Alexander-Walker will be utilized alongside Dyson Daniels at times, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
ANALYSIS
"I just think that's going to be hell for some teams," Saleh said. Signed to a four-year, $62 million contract at the start of free agency, it's vehemently clear that the Hawks are looking to deploy Alexander-Walker as their sixth man. And it sounds like there will be plenty of instances in which Trae Young, Daniels and Alexander-Walker are all sharing the floor when the Hawks want to play smaller and faster. Alexander-Walker averaged 9.4 points, 3.2 rebounds and 2.7 assists over 25.3 minutes per game during the regular season in 2024-25, but it wouldn't be a surprise to see him take a leap with his new team.
