Paul Millsap to miss fifth straight game with knee injury

Still no Paul Millsap.

The Hawks will be without their starting power forward for a fifth straight game, according to the injury report released by the team Saturday. Millsap was listed as out due to left knee tightness for Sunday afternoon’s home game against the Nets.

The Hawks have lost six straight games, including the past four without Millsap. They are also 0-7 on the season without their all-star and leading scorer who missed three games earlier in the season due to a left hip injury.

As expected, starting guard Kent Bazemore remains out with a right knee bone bruise. He will miss a fourth straight game with the injury. Sunday will be a week since it was announced that Bazemore would be re-evaluated in 7-10 days.
