Preview: Hawks, Heat set for Game 1 matchup in Miami

The Atlanta Hawks are back on the road on Sunday afternoon to kick off their first round series vs. the Miami Heat. Game 1 will tip early Sunday afternoon, with the Hawks looking to ride momentum of two play-in wins despite the absence of Clint Capela to start the series.

Trae Young exploded for 32 points in the second half of Atlanta’s win in Cleveland on Friday night. The Hawks will need more of that in the absence of Capela, who has arguably been their second most important player over the past two season.
