Hawks forward Josh Smith said he suffered a sprained left elbow during Atlanta's 103-93 victory over Orlando on Saturday.
“I don't know if a guy fell on me or I caught a screen or what,” Smith said today. “With all of the adrenaline I didn't feel it after the game but when I woke up it was a different story.”
Smith, who is left-handed, had an ice pack on the elbow prior to Atlanta's practice today. He said he planned to play Tuesday in Game 2 of the s first-round Eastern Conference playoff series.
Smith started at small forward in Game 1 and had 15 points and eight rebounds in 34 minutes.
“I'm a little concerned,” Hawks coach Larry Drew said. “He mentioned that it was sore today and it was bothering him a little bit. He's getting treated for it so hopefully it's better by game time tomorrow.”
