DeMarre Carroll is back.
The Hawks small forward will be active for tonight’s game against the Pistons and all indications are that he will start. Carroll missed the past four games with a groin strain. He went through full practices Wednesday and Thursday and shoot-around Friday.
Carroll declared himself 100 percent healthy following the morning practice.
“Coach Bud makes the final call but in my head I’m good to go,” Carroll said. “I think we did the proper treatment by taking the time off.”
Carroll indicated he would likely be on some minutes limitation.
“We discussed it,” Carroll said. “I’m going to come out kind of quickly. He is going to play it and see how I feel and I’ll let him know how I feel. It’s up to coach. Whatever he wants, I’ll be ready.”
The Hawks went 2-2 without Carroll. Thabo Sefolosha started in his place.
