After Action Report
In Atlanta, the Hawks outlasted the Pistons 98-92. The Hawks won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Hawks owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Hawks answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. The Hawks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
