The Hawks listed Kent Bazemore as probable on the team’s injury report issued Friday. The Hawks host the Rockets on Saturday night.

Bazemore missed Thursday’s win over the Nuggets with a right knee bone bruise. The starting small forward suffered in the injury in the final minutes on a win over the Pistons Wednesday. Bazemore was listed as probable prior to the game with Nuggets but coach Mike Budenholzer announced him as out in his pre-game availability. He said at the time he did not expect the injury to keep Bazemore out an extended period of time.

Tim Hardaway Jr. started in place of Bazemore against the Nuggets and finished with 21 points.
