Power rankings roundup: Week 2 and injuries

Another week is in the books and, well, we got to see our first look at what the Atlanta Hawks would look like if Trae Young were to ever go down with injury. There were some things that looked fine but besides that, back to back losses to the Miami Heat can’t be all that encouraging when it comes to looking at the weekly power rankings.

The Hawks have dropped three straight games and their two most important players each suffered ankle injuries in the span of three nights. But they will have had four straight days off before hosting the Spurs on Tuesday, Trae Young could be back this week, and John Collins returned to the game after a third-quarter ankle turn against Miami on Thursday.
