The Atlanta Hawks (23-25) will take on the Los Angeles Lakers (24-26) on Sunday afternoon as they look to extend their winning-streak to seven games. Los Angeles will be without at least some of their star power in this one, while the Hawks have some key names on the injury report as well.
Atlanta has won their last six games, moving into the No. 10 spot in the Eastern Conference standings after a loss by the Washington Wizards on Saturday night. The Hawks have received improved play by their second unit during the win streak, as well as an increased intensity on the defensive end.
