Mike Budenholzer: 'We cannot dwell on Kyle Korver loss'

Atlanta Hawks head coach Mike Budenholzer is adamant that his team cannot let the loss of Kyle Korver take away their focus for their Eastern Conference final series.

Atlanta Hawks head coach Mike Budenholzer has insisted that his side cannot afford to dwell on the loss of shooting guard Kyle Korver for the rest of the post-season.

Korver was ruled out for the remainder of the playoffs after sustaining a severe high ankle sprain in his side's defeat to the Cleveland Cavaliers in game two of their Eastern Conference final series.

Budenholzer admits that Korver's injury is a huge blow, but believes that his team have to refocus to get back into the series as they are currently 2-0 down to David Blatt's men.

"Obviously, it's very, very unfortunate for Kyle," Budenholzer told reporters. "He's such a big part of what we do.

"But there will be other people who will get opportunities. We expect to compete and get after it tomorrow in Game 3. I don't think anybody is going to feel sorry for us."

Game three of the series between the Hawks and the Cavaliers takes place on Sunday.
