The Atlanta Hawks snapped a four-game losing skid against the undermanned Boston Celtics last game out. The best way of backing this up is against the same Celtics squad who is still missing their best defender, Marcus Smart.

In Smart’s absence, superstar guard Trae Young had 40 points to go along with eight assists, three rebounds, and two steals. He had his best shooting game of the year going 14-of-20 from the field and 4-of-9 from deep. He did not miss any of his eight free-throw attempts.
