Game Preview

 

At the Smoothie King Center on Tuesday, the New Orleans Pelicans and Atlanta Hawks will play a game with playoff implications. In the Western Conference, the Pelicans are currently in ninth position and are coming off a win over the Kings. After losing 10 straight games, New Orleans has now won 2 straight. The Hawks, who are currently in eighth place in the East, suffered a 128-108 defeat against Denver on Saturday.

 

Atlanta has improved since having a difficult start to the year, but there is still work to be done as they move up the Eastern Conference standings. With 116.3 PPG, the Hawks’ outstanding offense is ranked sixth. Their capacity for ball care may be their strongest quality as they have the second-lowest turnover rate in the league, with just 12.8 turnovers per game.

 

Trae Young and Dejounte Murray, the Hawks’ two skilled guards, are the team’s leaders. With 27 PPG and 9.9 APG, Young leads the club. Trae, who is renowned for his powerful outside shooting, has been noticeably frigid this season. Young, who has a career three-point shooting percentage of 35%, is only shooting 32% this year. Despite this, he continues to be deadly from three and consistently poses a danger to pull from far beyond the arc.
