After Action Report

The Hawks squeaked past the Raptors 96-91. The Raptors couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Hawks. Hawks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Hawks carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Hawks bench chemistry carried them. Raptors' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Hawks · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
