The Atlanta Hawks used a big fourth quarter to secure a 97-81 win over the Chicago Bulls in their final preseason tune up.
Neither team was able to garner much separation over the first three quarters of the game but Atlanta went to work in the fourth. The Hawks converted 12 of 20 field goal attempts in the final quarter and outscored the Bulls 29-19. They pushed the lead to as many as 18 points before coasting home for the victory.
Mike Budenholzer indicated earlier this week that he would use this game as an opportunity for a full dress rehearsal.
