The Hawks didn't even make restricted free agent Jeff Teague an extension offer before last October's deadline.
The Hawks could be regretting not locking up Teague earlier. Now he's a restricted free agent and coming off his best season as a pro. Teague set career-highs in points (14.6), assists (7.2) and 3-pointers per game (1.1). He'll likely be asking for something just less than fellow point guards Ty Lawson (4 years, $48M) and Jrue Holiday (4 years, $41M) got last fall. The Hawks could also just make Teague a qualifying offer and then decide to match or decline any offer sheets that come in. May 10 - 2:30 PM

Jeff Teague - G - Hawks

Jeff Teague suffered an elbow contusion in the second quarter and will start the second half on Saturday.

Teague hit his elbow on the floor and left the game. He should be fine and isn't wearing any sort of protection on his elbow. The Hawks had a big first half thanks to Indiana having some major offensive issues and they will need a win tonight to have a chance in this series.

Jeff Teague - G - Hawks

Jeff Teague turned in a solid outing in a Game 1 loss to the Pacers on Sunday, shooting 7-of-14 from the field for 21 points with seven assists, one steal and two 3-pointers.

Teague's attacking style held up and his solid shooting deserves a ton of credit with how quickly Indiana's defense collapses in the halfcourt. Atlanta shooting 50 percent from the field as a team and still losing by 17 doesn't bode well for them, though. Teague may have to push the tempo and get more than the 14 fastbreak points than the team put up today in order to even push this series to six games.

Jeff Teague (rest) will not play in the regular-season finale Wednesday.

The Hawks are resting anyone and everyone that plays regular minutes Wednesday night and Teague is no exception. Shelvin Mack will start at point guard against the Knicks.

Jeff Teague - G - Hawks

Jeff Teague was quiet in a loss to the Raptors on Tuesday, shooting 2-of-5 from the field for four points with nine assists in just 18 minutes.

The Hawks didn't really show up as a team and allowed 96 points in the first three quarters of action. Teague is coming off a 24-point game on Friday, so his owners shouldn't worry about this dud too much. He should be ready to rebound on Wednesday vs. the Knicks.

Jeff Teague - G - Hawks

Jeff Teague made just 3-of-14 FGs for seven points in Saturday's win over Orlando, adding three assists and two steals in just under 32 minutes.

Teague hasn't stayed down for long this season and we expect him to bounce back against Shaun Livingston and the Cavaliers on Monday.

Jeff Teague - G - Hawks

Jeff Teague came through with 24 points, 13 assists and three 3-pointers on 9-of-15 shooting in Wednesday's easy win over the Raptors.

Teague has been a monster over the second half, although he did struggle on Monday with 10 points and one assist. He made up for that tonight, while Al Horford added 26 points and 12 boards, Josh Smith scored 19 and Kyle Korver hit a 3-pointer in his 64th straight game.

Jeff Teague - G - Hawks

Jeff Teague scored 10 points on 3-of-10 shooting with just one assist to go with one rebound and one block in the Hawks' loss to the Pacers on Monday.

Teague and the rest of the first unit were benched because of a 27-point deficit, but Josh Smith (20 points, four steals, two blocks) and Al Horford (13 and eight) were a bit better off in the end. This gave room for Shelvin Mack (10 points, four assists) and John Jenkins (eight points) to make some noise -- but for all intents and purposes this was a throwaway game in terms of evaluation.

Jeff Teague - G - Hawks

Jeff Teague scored 14 points in Sunday's 104-99 win over the Bucks on Sunday, adding eight assist, two steals and one block in 36 minutes.

The Hawks were handed this game by Milwaukee and went on a 12-2 run in the last 2:45 of the game. Teague played well and has established a great rapport with Al Horford. He should be starting in all leagues.

Jeff Teague - G - Hawks

Jeff Teague had 27 points, 11 assists, a steal, a block and four 3-pointers on 11-of-19 shooting in Wednesday's win over the Bucks.

He got off to a slow start this season but has quickly become a very reliable fantasy point guard. Al Horford added 26 points, 15 boards, two steals and two blocks, while Josh Smith came through with 12 points, 16 rebounds, six assists, a steal and a block on 5-of-14 shooting, although he didn't hit a 3-pointer.

Jeff Teague - G - Hawks

Jeff Teague returned to the starting point guard slot in Monday's 127-113 home loss to the Mavs, scoring 19 points on 7-of-13 shooting (no threes) with two rebounds, seven assists and two steals in 32 minutes.

The Hawks looked lethargic tonight but for fantasy purposes Teague is logging minutes and hopefully for owners he is turning to corner on last week's ankle injury. Al Horford went for 16 and 11 with two steals, Josh Smith scored 13 points on 5-of-11 shooting with a full line, and Kyle Korver scored 11 points with two threes to extend his 3-pointers streak to 60 straight games.

Jeff Teague - G - Hawks

Jeff Teague will move back into the Hawks' starting lineup on Monday, moving Devin Harris to SG and Kyle Korver to SF.

DeShawn Stevenson is headed back to the bench as a result of Larry Drew's latest lineup shifts. It's not very surprising since Teague notched 11 points and 15 assists in 37 minutes off the bench this weekend, and he belongs in all active lineups.

Jeff Teague - G - Hawks

Larry Drew confirmed that he wanted to ease Jeff Teague back into action following his ankle sprain.

Teague played only 23 minutes against the Suns on Friday and was "scared" every time he landed on the ankle, but he rebounded to play a whopping 37 minutes on Sunday and appears ready to roll moving forward. It would be a surprise if Teague doesn't get back into the starting lineup very shortly.

Jeff Teague - G - Hawks

Jeff Teague (ankle) came off the bench vs. the Nets but he finished with 11 points, five rebounds, 15 assists, two steals and two blocks in 37 minutes.

Teague's big game lifted the Hawks to a victory, and he easily outplayed starter Devin Harris (four points in nine minutes), so it's safe to keep him active for Atlanta's upcoming four-game week.

Jeff Teague - G - Hawks

Jeff Teague returned from his ankle injury on Friday, scoring eight points with one board, four assists, two steals and four turnovers on 2-of-10 shooting in 23 minutes.

He wasn't quite as aggressive as usual, but all seven of his two-point attempts did come from within 10 feet. Teague should be better in Sunday's game against the Nets.
