Bufkin hits game-winner as Hawks overcome Sixers in Summer League victory

The Atlanta Hawks overturned an 11-point fourth quarter deficit to rally to a 99-98 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers in their fourth game of Summer League on Thursday afternoon.

Seth Lundy led the Hawks in scoring with 16 points with Kobe Bufkin adding 14 points. For the Sixers, Jaden Springer scored 29 points while Terquavion Smith added 20 points.

The level of play in this contest was...not amazing, and the Hawks — despite their superior three-point shooting — found themselves behind for much of this contest. Their defense at the rim in particular wasn’t great. Even in the fourth quarter, things were looking dicey for the Hawks, with not many players were having especially strong games through the first three quarters — perhaps to be expected on the second day of an early back-to-back.
