Hawks' Paul Millsap: Struggles in return Sunday
Millsap (knee) provided 14 points (4-14 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), four rebounds and two assists across 26 minutes during Sunday's 91-82 loss to the Nets.
Analysis:
Millsap struggled from the field during his return from an eight-game absence due to a non-surgical procedure on his left knee. The Hawks limited his workload off the bench, but with the team off the schedule until Thursday against the Celtics, Millsap should rejoin the starting five and take on a 30-plus-minute workload at that time while his team jockeys for playoff position. While Millsap might not shape up as an ideal DFS play until he turns in a productive performance or two, he's worth activating right away in season-long leagues.
