Mike Muscala had 14 points and 12 rebounds for Fort Wayne in an NBA Development League assignment game Sunday. Muscala helped Fort Wayne to a 97-86 win over Westchester.

The center, a second-round pick of the Hawks last year, was 6 of 9 from the field in 26 minutes.

John Jenkins, a 2012 first-round pick of the Hawks, is also on assignment with Fort Wayne. The guard had 16 points, on 7 of 10 shooting, in 19 minutes.

Rookie Adreian Payne returned Saturday from his second D-League stint with Fort Wayne. He was inactive for Sunday’s game against Denver. He has yet to play an NBA game.

It is likely the Hawks will make a move with its D-League assignees Monday. Fort Wayne does not play again until Friday when it hosts Grand Rapids. The Hawks were also to be in Indiana Sunday night. They left following their win over the Nuggets and play at the Pacers Monday.
