Hawks Analysis: Still without Trae Young
Despite their 30-37 record this year, the Hawks lead the 10th spot in the Eastern Conference by 4.5 games. This season, Atlanta has already defeated the Lakers once. The Hawks scored 138 points throughout that contest. Trae Young ended with 26 points and 13 assists in the win. Clint Capela finished with a double-double, and Dejounte Murray scored a total of 24 points. The Hawks made 16 three-pointers and shot 52.5% from the field as a team. The Hawks are currently short-handed because they do not have Trae Young. The Hawks have faced significant challenges this season, including injuries and defensive lapses, which have kept them from winning consecutive games and establishing themselves as a strong unit.
Lakers Analysis: On a 2-game losing run
As of this now, LA is ranked 10th in the Western Conference, exactly where the Hawks are in the East. The Lakers’ last 2 games ended in losses. They have fallen farther into the play-in spots as a result of this skid. The team of Darvin Ham, who is currently four games over .500, is currently 3 games below the top six positions. Their most recent loss came at home against Golden State, another play-in rival, 128-121. With 40 points, LeBron James topped all other scorers on the court. He should once again be the best option for this game as he is accessible. With an injury against the Warriors, Anthony Davis was limited to just 12 minutes of action.
