The Atlanta Hawks and Los Angeles Clippers will meet on Sunday afternoon in an inter-conference matchup, as the Hawks wind down their extended road trip. The Hawks are looking to finish out the trip with a victory after losing in frustrating fashion to the Lakers on Friday night. Atlanta fell to 17-21 on the season with the defeat.
The defense continues to be an issue for the Hawks, who come into play on Sunday 26th in the NBA in defensive rating. Atlanta is second in offensive rating, yet still doesn’t rank in the top half of the league in net rating.
