Hawks comeback bid falls short in Vegas finale

The Atlanta Hawks completed their 2022 Las Vegas NBA Summer League action with a record of two wins and three losses after a comeback bid versus the Cleveland Cavaliers came up short on Saturday in a 94-90 loss. As was the normal pattern across five games of play, Atlanta dug a hole in the first quarter finding themselves down 10 points at one point.

In this game, however, they steadied their play more quickly and managed but a single digit lead for most of the game. Cleveland briefly pushed the margin to double digits in each of the first three periods, but Atlanta rallied each time to keep the game in range.
