Paul Millsap Involved in Car Accident But Not Hurt

Hawks forward Paul Millsap’s Rolls-Royce collided with a motorcycle Monday afternoon in Atlanta.

Millsap walked away unhurt, and suited up for Tuesday night’s preseason action:

According to the police report obtained by The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Millsap was not at fault for the accident that occurred when the motorcycle driver pulled out in front of the Rolls-Royce he was driving. The motorcycle driver, who was hospitalized, was cited with failure to maintain his lane. According to the report, the motorcycle driver “lost control of the bike” and hit Millsap’s vehicle head-on.

 

The incident occurred after Millsap left a team sponsored golf outing at Druid Hills Golf Club. The crash happened near the intersection of Ponce de Leon Avenue and Oakdale Road and the motorcycle caught fire, according to Fire Department Sgt. Cortez Stafford. […] According to Stafford, a Grady Hospital ambulance was already at the scene assessing the patient, who was alert and conscious, but injured. Firefighters extinguished the fire and assisted with cleanup. The injured man was taken to the hospital for treatment.

 

“I reached out to the family because it is important that he is doing well,” Millsap told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. “I wanted to send my best wishes to him.”
