The Atlanta Hawks came into tonight’s game reeling from a 5-game losing streak. As a result, Quin Snyder responded by deploying a two big lineup with the absences of Jalen Johnson and De’Andre Hunter. Onyeka Okongwu and Clint Capela were tasked with countering the size and length the Toronto Raptors offered.
Capela logged the first four points for the Hawks with some bully ball.
