Splitter practices some, likely to miss sixth straight game

It appears as if Tiago Splitter will miss his sixth straight game with a sore right hip. However, the Hawks reserve center took a step toward returning on Monday. He was a limited participate in practice.

“I think he’s had a good couple days,” Hawks coach Mike Budenholzer said. “He did some individual workout and a little bit of the team stuff that was pretty light. I think we feel like he’s progressing.”

When asked if Splitter would be out for Wednesday’s game against the Raptors, Budenholzer said “My guess will be yes but we’ll see between now and tomorrow morning but that would be my guess.”
