The Atlanta Hawks (24-25) will host the Toronto Raptors (24-23) on Monday as they search for their eighth straight win. The Hawks will also be looking to sweep the home back-to-back after beating the Los Angeles Lakers Sunday afternoon.
Trae Young led Atlanta to the win over the Lakers on Sunday with 36 points and 12 assists. Onyeka Okongwu had 16 points (12 in the fourth quarter), with John Collins adding 20 points, 11 rebounds and three steals.
Toronto last played on Saturday night when they beat the Miami Heat in triple-overtime. Typically the Hawks would be at a big disadvantage on a back-to-back, but the Raptors being on the road for a three-overtime on game Saturday night combined with the early start Sunday for the Hawks (who have been at home for a week now) makes the rest factor perhaps less of a thing than normal in this matchup.
