Fernando's contract for the 2023-24 season was guaranteed on Monday, Lauren L. Williams of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Hawks' Bruno Fernando: May debut Monday
Fernando isn't listed on the injury report for Monday's matchup against the Hornets.
Fernando and Garrison Mathews were both acquired by Atlanta ahead of the trade deadline but weren't in uniform for Saturday's contest against San Antonio. They were initially left off the injury report before being deemed unavailable, so a similar situation could happen again Monday. However, for now, it appears Fernando will suit up for the first time as a Hawk, but that doesn't mean he'll be part of head coach Nate McMillan's rotation.

Hawks' Bruno Fernando: Won't be in uniform Saturday
Updating a previous report, Fernando will not suit up for Saturday's game against the Spurs, Kevin Chouinard of the Hawks' official site reports.
Fernando wasn't on the Hawks' initial injury report, suggesting he'd be available, but it appears coach Nate McMillan wants the center to get more acclimated with the team before suiting up. Even when he's deemed available, Fernando is a third-string center for Atlanta, so there shouldn't be any fantasy implications.

Hawks' Bruno Fernando: Slated to debut Saturday
Fernando isn't on the injury report for Saturday's game versus the Spurs.
Fernando will be available off the bench as he begins his second stint with the Hawks, following his acquisition from the Rockets on Thursday. However, with Onyeka Okongwu entrenched as the top backup to starting center Clint Capela, Fernando likely won't find himself any higher than third on the depth chart and will presumably be outside of the rotation more often than not.

Hawks' Bruno Fernando: On move to Atlanta
The Rockets traded Fernando and Garrison Mathews to the Hawks on Thursday for Justin Holiday and Frank Kaminsky, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Fernando has played a steady bench role for the Rockets behind Alperen Sengun, averaging 5.1 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.7 blocks and 1.0 assists over 13.1 minutes per game, but the team elected to move him in a deal where the Hawks are looking to save some money. Fernando's fantasy outlook seems even bleaker in Atlanta, with both Clint Capela and Onyeka Okongwu ahead of him at the center position. His first chance to debut likely surfaces Saturday versus the Spurs.

Rockets' Bruno Fernando: Scores nine off bench
Fernando closed Saturday's 153-121 loss to the Thunder with nine points (4-4 FG, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, three assists and one block in 18 minutes.

Fernando has logged 10 or more minutes in seven straight games, averaging 4.9 points, 4.3 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 1.9 blocks during this stretch.

Rockets' Bruno Fernando: Sitting out Thursday
Fernando (illness) will sit out Thursday's game versus the Spurs.
Fernando had played five consecutive games for the Rockets but will not take the floor Thursday. On a positive note, Fernando's absence isn't related to the knee issue that cost him time earlier in the season, and a non-COVID illness doesn't figure to keep him sidelined long. Alperen Sengun, Usman Garuba and Kenyon Martin are among the candidates to soak up Fernando's minutes.

Rockets' Bruno Fernando: Questionable versus Spurs
Fernando (illness) is questionable to play in Thursday's game against San Antonio.

Rockets' Bruno Fernando: Scores season-high 14 points
Fernando notched 14 points (7-8 FG), seven rebounds, one assist and one steal across 14 minutes during Friday's 122-121 victory over the Suns.
Fernando was terrific in limited minutes off the bench Friday, going 2-of-2 from the field for four points in the second quarter before adding another 10 points on 5-of-6 shooting in the fourth, along with five boards. The Rockets forward missed just one shot in the game and finished with a season-high 14 points in just 14 minutes of action. He was the only player off Houston's bench to score in double figures and will look to earn more minutes in the team's next game at Golden State.

Rockets' Bruno Fernando: Limited minutes in return
Fernando (knee) supplied four points (2-2 FG), two rebounds and one steal in eight minutes during Monday's 129-113 loss to the Nuggets.
Fernando returned from a one-game absence but handled only a light role off the bench. Based on how Fernando has performed when healthy this season, he could get another look in the starting five at some point soon. With that said, Fernando's upside will be limited so long as Alperen Sengun is available to pick up the majority of the center minutes, whether as a member of the top unit or the bench.

Rockets' Bruno Fernando: Off injury report
Fernando (knee) will be available for Monday's matchup against the Nuggets.
Fernando missed the vast majority of the season due to a knee injury before making his return Friday and then sitting out the second leg of the back-to-back Saturday. He likely was held out precautionarily and should re-take Alperen Sengun's spot as the starting center.
