Throughout the Atlanta Hawks series against the Philadelphia 76ers, Danilo Gallinari wound up playing the role of unsung hero more often than not. He was the Hawks third-leading scorer in the Eastern Conference Semifinals and shot a team-high 44 percent from three-point range.

The 32-year-old Gallinari also managed to haul in nearly five boards per game.
