After Action Report

The Hawks survived the Lakers 119-117. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hawks cashed in. Hawks' outside barrage was a constant threat; Lakers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. The Hawks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
