After Action Report
In Atlanta, the Hawks rolled past the Kings 117-83. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hawks cashed in. Hawks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Hawks answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. The Kings rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It broke open after the break.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hawks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
