Booker became a household name when he scored 70 points in a loss to the Boston Celtics last Friday.

"We're about 70 points shorthanded," Watson cracked.

Hawks All-Star Paul Millsap (knee) will sit out for the sixth consecutive game. Atlanta's Kent Bazemore (knee) and Thabo Sefolosha (groin) are also sidelined.
