After planting his leg the wrong way during the Cavs vs Hawks Game 1 in the ECF, Hawks forward DeMarre Carroll had a MRI on his knee. The MRI, contrary to the belief of many on twitter, simply showed Carroll has a bone bruise and there is no structural damage.
Carroll is day to day, and will be updated on Friday if he can play in Game 2.
One thing is sure, if Carroll is out, the primary defender of Lebron James, this will be a much different series for the No. 1 seeded Hawks.
