After Action Report
The Hawks buried the Magic 132-92. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hawks cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Hawks; fresh off a statement win, the Hawks stayed locked in. The Hawks bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Hawks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Never a doubt in this one.

- Hawks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
