NBA PLAYOFFS FIRST ROUND GAME 5 PREVIEW: Heat looks to close out Hawks in Miami

The Miami Heat have held Trae Young to single-digit scoring outputs twice in their four games this series — a huge achievement against the player who scored more points than anyone else in the NBA this season.

And now, they’ll have to lock him up one more time to get a win and advance to the second round of the NBA Playoffs. The Heat blasted the Hawks to a 24 point victory in Atlanta on Sunday night and they did it without Kyle Lowry who sat out. Lowry is again out for Game 5 nursing a hamstring injury he suffered in Game 3.
