Scott (back) isn't listed on the Hawks' injury report in advance of Sunday's playoff opener against the Nets, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Analysis:

Scott sustained a bruised back in Monday's loss to the Knicks and subsequently missed the season finale Wednesday at Chicago. After fitting in a partial practice Friday, he's seemingly been cleared for action Sunday. Sidelined for most of March due to a sprained left big toe, he appeared in seven of of the Hawks' final eight contests, averaging 10.2 points (on 41 percent shooting), 5.0 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.2 steals, and 1.2 three-pointers in 24 minutes.
