Atlanta Hawks head coach Nate McMillan is self-isolating until he returns a series of negative COVID-19 tests after his son, assistant coach Jamelle McMillan, entered health and safety protocols, the team announced Wednesday.
Chris Jent will assume head coaching duties against the Indiana Pacers.
The Hawks are presently 11-10 (.524) on the season - good for 10th in the Eastern Conference but just two games behind the third-seeded Miami Heat.
