After Action Report
The Hawks fended off the Cavaliers 125-119. The Hawks got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Hawks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Hawks bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. The Hawks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
