NBA Injuries: Wizards' Bradley Beal Status Against Hawks

Bradley Beal will miss the next two games with a hamstring injury, after scoring 50 points against the Pacers.

Bradley Beal dropped 50 points in the Wizards' 133-132 overtime win over the Pacers in Indiana. The win saw the Wizards overcome the Pacers in the standings (tenth seed to ninth seed) and saw Russell Westbrook tie Oscar Robertson's record for triple-doubles.
