The Atlanta Hawks were on the road on Saturday evening to complete the back-to-back vs. the Denver Nuggets. The Hawks were unable to pick up the win in this one as Denver controlled the contest from start to finish, picking up the 128-108 win behind huge games from their star players.
Atlanta was without Trae Young in this one, but their defense let them down as much as anything. The Hawks gave up 70 points in the first half as Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic were dominating the game for Denver. Meanwhile, Atlanta was not quite clicking on offense and things began to get out of hand towards the end of the first half.
