Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela will be sidelined through the end of the regular season because of an injury to his left hand.
An MRI showed he has a ligament injury to the fourth metacarpal of his left hand, the Hawks said Friday, adding that he will be re-evaluated in three to four weeks.
Atlanta, which is seventh in the Eastern Conference standings through Thursday and in line for the play-in tournament, conclude the regular season on April 13 against Orlando.
Capela, 30, has not played since a 132-123 home victory over the Philadelphia 76ers on March 10. He is averaging 8.9 points, 8.5 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 21.4 minutes in 55 games (41 starts).
A first-round pick by Houston in the 2014 NBA Draft, Capela has career averages of 12.0 points, 10.5 rebounds, 1.0 assist, 1.4 blocks and 26.2 minutes in 664 games (587 starts) for the Rockets (2014-20) and Hawks.
