Thabo Sefolosha has been ruled out of Tuesday’s game against the Heat as the Hawks continue to limit the forward in back-to-back games for right ankle rehabilitation. The Hawks host the Nets Wednesday. Sefolosha said his ankle tightens after games following offseason surgery. The Hawks are starting a stretch of four games in five days and also have back-to-back games Friday at the Pelicans and Saturday versus the Wizards.
Also on the Hawks injury report:
* Jeff Teague is listed as probable with a finger sprain. The starting point guard had an X-ray, which was negative, following Sunday’s game at the Hornets after being hit on the hand.
* Mike Muscala has been listed as questionable. He has not played in the past three games with a right ankle sprain. The center was active Sunday but did not play.
* Kyle Korver is listed as probable. There is a chance the starting shooting guard will sit against the Nets. He sat out Friday’s game against the Hornets due to right ankle rehabilitation and it appears the team will limit him in back-to-back games along with Sefolosha.
