ATLANTA (AP) — The Hawks’ Josh Smith will miss Tuesday’s game against the San Antonio Spurs because of swelling in his right knee.
Hawks coach Larry Drew says forward Marvin Williams is starting for Smith. With Jason Collins at center, Al Horford is the other starting forward.
Smith, who is averaging 16.7 points and 8.7 rebounds, missed two games in early March with a sprained right knee. Since his return, he has played with a protective wrap on the knee. He does not know if he will miss more than one game.
