Reports that surfaced late Sunday night that Hawks guard Kyle Korver will need surgery on his severe high right ankle sprain and will miss four to six months are inaccurate.

Korver has yet to visit a foot and ankle specialist for a second opinion on the injury, which could eventually require surgery. The upcoming examinination has yet to be scheduled. When the examination is complete it will help determine a course of action.

Korver was injured in the third quarter of Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Cavaliers on Friday. He will miss the remainder of the postseason.
