We are just about a month away from the start of the 2016-17 NBA season and it appears Atlanta Hawks star Paul Millsap is going to miss a little time.
Atlanta Hawks forward Paul Millsap recently underwent a preventative procedure to reduce mild swelling in his right knee.
“After reviewing the options with Paul to treat his knee and provide him the best long-term care, we agreed, largely due to the time of year, that this was the best method and time to ensure his complete readiness for the start of the regular season,” President of Basketball Operations/Head Coach Mike Budenholzer said.
In an effort to maximize the benefit of the procedure, Millsap will progress through phases of rest and recovery before returning to full basketball activities over the next three weeks.
He will miss the first two preseason games and his status will be updated as appropriate.Stay tuned to HHS1987 for more NBA news. Follow @eldorado2452 on Twitter and Instagram for all your Atlanta Hawks & sports news.
