Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela will be sidelined at least three-to-four weeks with a ligament injury in the fourth metacarpal of his left hand, the team announced Friday.

Capela last played March 10 and has missed the Hawks' last four games.

The 30-year-old is averaging 8.9 points, 8.5 rebounds, and 1.1 assists on 55.9% shooting through 55 games this season. Capela started in his first 41 appearances but moved to the bench in favor of Onyeka Okongwu in January.

He's set to hit unrestricted free agency this offseason.

The Hawks sit seventh in the Eastern Conference at 33-36. They return to action Saturday against the Golden State Warriors.
