After Action Report

The Hawks outlasted the Nets 110-96. The better team simply showed up tonight. Second-chance points piled up for the Hawks; Hawks' shot-blockers turned the paint into a no-fly zone. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. The Hawks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
