The Atlanta Hawks were at home on Wednesday evening to take on the Sacramento Kings. Behind Young’s 35 points, they were able to win 115-106.
Both teams came into the evening 10-7 and looked to head into Thanksgiving with a win. It was a homecoming for Kevin Huerter as it was his first time facing the Hawks after playing with the team since 2018.
The Hawks came out with a good pace on offense, with all starters scoring in the first quarter. John Collins got his first points with this tough bucket and the foul.
The second unit got into the fun late in the quarter, as Jalen Johnson rose up for a easy dunk.
