By Chris Vivlamore

Paul Millsap will be in the Hawks lineup tonight when they host the Grizzlies.

The All-Star forward missed practice Friday due to an illness. He was at shootaround Saturday morning and declared himself fit to play.

The Grizzlies will be without guard Mike Conley with a sprained right ankle. Conley had 21 points and 13 assists in the Grizzlies 108-101 win over the Hawks Jan. 12. They are also likely to be without Tony Allen, who is listed as day-to-day with a sprained left wrist. The Grizzlies will have center Marc Gasol, who missed the first matchup presenting the Hawks with another height disadvantage.
