Seraphin (knee) is out against the Hawks on Thursday, Al Iannazzone of Newsday Sports reports.

Analysis:

Seraphin was hoping to return after sitting out of the Knicks' opener versus the Bucks, but the Hawks have elected to wait another game to bring the 25-year-old back. Lance Thomas could pick up some minutes in his stead. His next opportunity to return will come on Saturday when the Knicks play the Wizards.
