Jazz cruise past undermanned Hawks
Dale Zanine-USA TODAY Sports The Atlanta Hawks are now 0-3 this week, with all three losses coming at home. The latest defeat came at the hands of the Utah Jazz, who blew past a short-handed Hawks group on Thursday evening. Trae Young, De’Andre Hunter and Onyeka Okongwu were unable to suit up for Atlanta, while Bogdan Bogdanovic and Kris Dunn remain out.
Utah started the game on a 12-2 run, and largely controlled the entire game. The Hawks led once, by two points when it was 2-0, and never led again. The Jazz dominated most aspects of the game, which shouldn’t come as much of a surprise given their record and the fact that Young was sitting.
