Payne (hamstring) is out for Wednesday's game against the Hawks, Steve Popper of Newsday reports.

EDGE Analysis

Payne will miss a second consecutive contest due to a left hamstring strain, and the floor general doesn't have a timetable for his return. That said, he wouldn't see regular minutes even if available, so his absence shouldn't affect many fantasy decisions. His next chance to play will come against the Bucks on Friday.
