Atlanta will want a Trae Younger rebound match tonight. He scored 13-5-13 factors on pictures and by no means managed to search out his tempo final night time. Toronto doesn’t have an excellent protection and Younger set them on within the final match.
Dyson Daniels made a stable offensive match final night time towards Detroit, maybe the one participant to have made an excellent offensive match. He scored 20 factors and pulled 10-21 on the bottom and in addition took 10 rebounds.
Vit Krejci was within the departure coaching for Atlanta with the absence of Zaccharie Risacher and he fired the ball, particularly with a 3-5 file final night time towards Detroit. Krejci began within the final match towards Toronto and scored 5 factors.
Jalen Johnson has been stable since his return to alignment, however he was uncertain earlier than yesterday’s match, so keep watch over his standing at present. He collected 17 factors, 9 rebounds and 6 interceptions towards the pistons. He didn’t have a lot influence in the course of the three -quarters, however got here to life within the fourth quarter, specifically in protection, the place he performed a key position by serving to to pressure eight reversals on the fourth quarter of a strait.
After having had three good consecutive video games, the Hawks positioned Onyeka Okongwu within the beginning coaching, however it was not as efficient within the final two video games. This doesn’t imply that he mustn’t begin, however he didn’t have the identical influence as in the course of the victories towards Phoenix, Chicago and Boston. He collected 9 factors and 10 rebounds final night time towards Detroit.
The Hawks bench was one in every of their strengths this season, however aside from Clint Capela, it was a weak point final night time towards Detroit. CAPELA made a double-double of 16 factors and 10 rebounds, however from’Andre Hunter and Bogdan Bogdanovic mixed to shoot 0-13 out of three. Particularly, Bogdanovic had lots of bother throughout final week to shoot basketball, and for a group that lacks many confirmed shooters, Atlanta wants him to depart.
It was a ugly match final night time from an offensive viewpoint, however it’s partly because of the variance of pictures and luck. I don’t count on the Hawks to have such poor efficiency, particularly towards a protection like Toronto. The Hawks have performed nicely (most of them) in protection within the final video games and the Raptors usually are not highly effective on this aspect of the sphere.
