After Action Report
The Hawks fended off the Clippers 98-89. The Hawks won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Hawks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Clippers pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Hawks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
