Kyle Korver was a late scratch to the Hawks lineup when the shooting guard experienced an illness upon arriving at the arena for Friday night’s game against the Nuggets.

The depleted Hawks were already without Dwight Howard, Tim Hardaway Jr. and Tiago Splitter.

With the Hawks short-handed on the wing, it’s likely that Taurean Prince, Ryan Kelly and DeAndre Bembry may all see playing time.
