Hawks' Dwight Howard: Unsure of status for Wednesday

Howard labeled his quad contusion as "super painful" and is expected to get treatment both Tuesday night, as well as Wednesday morning, before determining his availability moving forward, Chris Vivlamore of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Analysis:

Howard suffered the injury during Tuesday's matchup with the Heat and was eventually forced to leave the game during the third quarter, finishing with 11 points (5-9 FG, 1-3 FT), 11 rebounds, one assist and three steals. Considering how painful Howard says the injury is, it wouldn't be surprising if he was ultimately held out of Wednesday's game against the Bucks, but we should get an update after undergoing further treatment.
