Hawks rule out Paul Millsap (knee) on Friday

Atlanta Hawks forward/center Paul Millsap (knee) will not suit up for Friday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks.

What It Means:

This will be the fourth straight game on the sidelines for Millsap, and he's not even traveling with the team right now. Ersan Ilyasova will continue to start and see increased minutes until Millsap returns.

Millsap has averaged a career-high 18.1 points to go with 7.7 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.0 blocks in 34.3 minutes per game this season. He ranks 2nd among Hawks players and 65th in the NBA with a 3.0 nERD on the year.
