Hawks' Paul Millsap: Out Friday, up in the air for Sunday

Coach Mike Budenholzer acknowledged that it hasn't been determined if Millsap (knee), who has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Bucks, will be ready to play Sunday against the Nets, Chris Vivlamore of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Analysis:

Friday will mark Millsap's fourth consecutive absence due to the sore left knee, an injury he first experienced during pregame warmups back on March 18. The veteran forward didn't even travel with the Hawks to Milwaukee ahead of Friday's game, but it looks like he'll be reevaluated when the team returns to Atlanta on Saturday before a verdict is rendered on his status for Sunday. The Hawks have lost all six games that Millsap has missed this season, reflecting the immense value he brings to the team.
