Kent Bazemore said his left wrist is sore but does not expect it will cost him any of the Hawks’ final five regular-season games.

Bazemore was injured during a severe fall in the first quarter of Friday’s overtime loss to the Cavaliers. The starting small forward did not miss any time during the game but had an X-ray following the contest. The results of the X-ray were negative.

Bazemore was a full participant in Sunday’s practice.

“At this point of the year no one is really healthy,” Bazemore said. “It’s not really the time for it so I’m going to be out there regardless.”

Hawks coach Mike Budenholzer also does not expect Bazemore to miss any games. He said they will monitor the injury over the next two days. The Hawks next host the Suns on Tuesday night.
