Hawks' Paul Millsap: Ruled out Friday

Millsap (knee) won't play Friday against the Bucks, Chris Vivlamore of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Analysis:

A sore knee will keep Millsap out of his fourth straight game, as the pressure begins to build for the sinking Hawks, who have dropped their last five games and eight of their last 11. In MIllsap's absence, expect Ersan Ilyasova to make another start at power forward against one of his former teams. Ilyasova has averaged 13.7 points, 6.0 rebounds, 2.3 three-pointers, 1.7 assists and 1.0 steal in 27.0 minutes per game over the last three contests while Millsap has been sidelined.
