ATLANTA (AP) Atlanta Hawks guard Kyle Korver has returned to the lineup against San Antonio with protective gear on his face to cover a broken nose.

Spurs guard Manu Ginobili missed his fourth straight game with a sprained right ankle.

Korver was sidelined three games after getting injured in a road win last week against the Los Angeles Lakers.

Korver, a 12th-year veteran, leads the NBA with a 50.1 shooting rate on 3-point attempts.
