Millsap returns, will start versus Thunder (updated)
UPDATE: Paul Millsap will start for Hawks versus Thunder.
Paul Millsap will be a game-time decision for the Hawks’ home game against the Thunder Monday night.
Millsap, the Hawks leading scorer, has missed the past three games with a left hip injury. He suffered the injury in a fall against the Jazz last month. He played the next two games before being unable to play.
The Hawks listed Millsap as questionable on the team’s injury report. He was unavailable to the media following the team’s lengthy shootaround which included film and court work.
“We’ll see how today goes,” Hawks coach Mike Budenholzer said. “I do think he’s making progress.”
Budenholzer said Millsap has not undergone any outside tests such as an MRI exam.
The Hawks have lost six straight and nine of the past 10 games.
