Paul Millsap's knee exam comes back clean, still out Sunday for Hawks

An MRI on Atlanta Hawks forward/center Paul Millsap's left knee came back clean according to head coach Mike Budenholzer.

What It Means:

Millsap has already been ruled out for the fourth straight game on Sunday, but based on Budenholzer's comments, the All-Star forward is likely day-to-day. His injury was previously described as "tightness" in his left knee, but Budenholzer added that he has some swelling as well. He should be considered questionable for Tuesday's game, and Ersan Ilyasova will continue to be the primary beneficiary in his absence.
