Hawks starting point guard Dennis Schroder will miss at least one more game because of the ankle injury he suffered Sunday.

Schroder did not travel with the Hawks for their game at Chicago on Thursday. He did not play against the Heat on Monday and said he “probably” would return to the lineup for Friday’s home opener against the Nuggets. Schroder rolled his ankle while driving to the basket in the fourth quarter of the Hawks’ loss at Brooklyn.

Starting power forward Ersan Ilyasova (knee) traveled to Chicago, and coach Mike Budenholzer said he would be evaluated following the team’s light practice session Thursday morning. Ilyasova sat out the game at Miami.
