The Atlanta Hawks' De'Andre Hunter will undergo a lateral meniscus arthroscopic debridement procedure on his right knee Monday, the team announced.

Hunter will have his recovery timeline updated in around two weeks, the Hawks added.

The second-year wing missed the Hawks' last four contests due to knee discomfort. In 18 appearances this season - all starts - the former No. 4 pick averaged 17.2 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 2.2 assists per game, with 36.6% shooting on 3-pointers.
