After Action Report
The Hawks held off the Bulls 98-92. Ugly basketball, but the Hawks did just enough. Hawks' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Hawks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
