Virginia's Mike Scott leads Atlanta Hawks to victory in Game 5 of NBA Eastern Conference playoffs

Former Virginia Basketball star Mike Scott had himself a big game on Tuesday in front of a raucous, sold-out crowd in Atlanta as the Hawks defeated the Celtics 110-83.

Scott played 22 minutes off the bench, shooting 7-of-9 from the field, including 2-of-3 from three point land. He added one free throw (on one attempt), five rebounds, and a steal with no turnovers. His +/- of +26 was second highest on the team. His 17 points led the team, with Kent Bazemore and Jeff Teague each adding 16 apiece. Bazemore was an impressive 4-of-9 from three for the game.
