Kristaps Porzingis to miss two weeks with illness, Trae Young nears return

The Atlanta Hawks announced that Kristaps Porzingis will be out for the next two weeks on Sunday

DECEMBER 14 • Associated Press

Set to miss two weeks Porzingis will miss at least the next two weeks of action as he undergoes further testing for the illness he's dealing with, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

Impact Porzingis has missed seven of the past eight games for Atlanta due to a mysterious illness, so he'll take the next few weeks off to try and get to the bottom of exactly what he's been dealing with. Onyeka Okongwu should continue to start with Porzingis out, and Mouhamed Gueye will be more involved in the rotation. It sounds like the earliest Porzingis could be expected to return would be Dec. 29 versus the Thunder.

Impact Porzingis returned from a four-game absence due to an illness Friday, though he was deployed off the bench for the first time this season.
