The Brooklyn Nets have had the Atlanta Hawks’ number of late and head to Atlanta Saturday night looking to complete a three-game season sweep of the Hawks.
The Nets (34-33) have won four straight against the Hawks (22-44) and seven of the last eight meetings, including three straight in Atlanta.
Brooklyn has won its last two games, including a 113-107 decision at home Wednesday night over the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Hawks have lost their last two, most recently a 111-104 loss at home to the San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday.
The Nets battled back from an eight-point deficit late in the third quarter and made enough free throws down the stretch to hold off the Cavaliers Wednesday.
