Amidst the Atlanta Hawks' four-game winning streak, many players have seen shifting roles and new opportunities. Considering Jalen Johnson and Jock Landale have been out for most of it, Atlanta's relied on others to step up.
Johnson is back healthy, now, but when he was down for three consecutive games, Lu Dort filled his spot at the four. Landale's absence, however, has been a bit more tricky.
Atlanta's experimented with both Asa Newell and Zuby Ejiofor, but in the minutes they played alongside each other, the rookie was the real standout. Now, Newell's hurt, and the opportunity for Ejiofor has never been greater.
