Hawks forward Thabo Sefolosha out for tonight’s game against the Pelicans

Atlanta Hawks forward Thabo Sefolosha will miss his second-straight game with flu-like symptoms, the Hawks announced this morning via press release.

With Thabo out again, expect the Hawks to go small with Kent Bazemore playing some three tonight, although inserting Mike Scott into that spot might be more beneficial against a team like the New Orleans Pelicans. Kind of like how Pellies’ coach Monty Williams uses Ryan Anderson as a 3 and a 4, perhaps we’ll see some of that with Mike Scott by Hawks’ coach Mike Budenholzer.

Thabo is averaging 9.5 ppg, 8.2 rpg and 2.3 asp, per 36 minutes this season.
