Kobe Bufkin Out for Remainder of Season After Shoulder Surgery
Kobe Bufkin of the Atlanta Hawks will miss the rest of the 2024-25 season. He underwent surgery on his shoulder. This injury started on December 18, 2024. Before this, there were no previous injuries reported for him.
What It Means
This news means Kobe Bufkin will not be able to play for the Hawks this season. His stats include an average of 5.3 points per game and a field goal percentage of 38.3%. He was playing around 12 minutes per game before the injury.
The Hawks will need to adjust their lineup without Bufkin. Trae Young, who plays more minutes and scores more points, is expected to continue leading as point guard. Keaton Wallace might see more time on the court too.
