The Atlanta Hawks (16-20) finished the first half of their season with three games in four nights down in the sunshine state, with the final one coming in Orlando against the Magic. In Nate McMillan’s second game as the head coach, the Hawks did not win as comfortably as they did in the first. However, Atlanta did emerge victorious by a 115-112 final margin after a wild second half push.
Clint Capela, De’Andre Hunter, Cam Reddish and Kris Dunn were unavailable for Atlanta. Capela was a late scratch, as he’s dealing with a foot issue — listed as right foot pain — that developed in the Miami game Tuesday evening.
