Atlanta Hawks forward Paul Millsap played the first half of Wednesday night's game against Utah with his name misspelled on the back of his jersey.
It is Millsap's first season with the team, but it is not his first home game in Atlanta, which makes it puzzling how the Hawks gave him a jersey with the name "Milsap" to start the game. That's a question for the Hawks equipment manager.
The Hawks resolved the issue at halftime as Millsap played the second half with a jersey that had his name correctly spelled, but you have to wonder how this happens.
In the end, Millsap finished the game with a season-high 30 points to lead the Hawks to a 100-97 win over the Jazz, so some might argue that he should play with his name misspelled more often.
