After Action Report
The Hawks survived the Nuggets 104-103. The Hawks won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Hawks' defenders refused to give up clean looks; the Nuggets played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. 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.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
