The Atlanta Hawks (34-35) will be back at home on Friday night to host the Memphis Grizzlies (48-22) after a tough loss on the road vs. the Charlotte Hornets on Wednesday. The Hawks look destined for a play-in spot in the Eastern Conference at this point, and the loss to Charlotte certainly hurt their chances at hosting a play-in game next month.
Atlanta will face one of the best teams in the NBA when they look to bounce back from the loss on Friday night. The Grizzlies have the second-best record in the Western Conference and brings a four-game winning streak into play on Friday.
