The Hawks will likely be without starting small forward Taurean Prince for Tuesday’s game at the Hornets.

Prince, with a right ankle sprain, was listed as doubtful on the team’s injury report released Monday afternoon ahead of the game. He was injured with 8:41 left in the fourth quarter of Saturday’s home win over the Heat when he collided with Josh Richardson chasing a loose ball.

Prince has started all nine games for the Hawks (3-6) this season. He has averaged 15.4 points, 5.1 rebounds and 3.2 assists in 28.1 minutes.
