NBA : Atlanta Hawks Beat Phoenix Suns 116 -107
The NBA trade deadline on Thursday afternoon had worn out the whole basketball community. The Atlanta Hawks and Phoenix Suns, who played hours after both clubs completed transactions, also felt the effects of the accumulated tiredness. Both clubs had a shortage of players, but Phoenix was a shell of itself following the biggest deal of the year. Josh Okogie led Phoenix with 25 points despite the absence of Devin Booker (groyne), Landry Shamet (foot), Cameron Payne (foot), and Kevin Durant (not with the team). Okogie's explosive shooting, meanwhile, failed to impress his colleagues. Phoenix's shooting was atrocious (7-30, 23.3%). The majority of the missed shots were recovered by Atlanta, who won the rebounds war 59-35. After the lengthy drive home, Trae Young counted his blessings.twelve assists, seven rebounds, and 36 points. Unfortunately, Young was responsible for nine of Atlanta's 18 turnovers.
Atlanta managed to keep Phoenix at a distance for the majority of the game despite their shoddy play. The Suns' thin roster was unable to overturn their second-half disadvantage, as they went on to lose 116-107. Hawks head coach Nate McMillan stated, "We've got to be crisper on both sides of the court." It's nothing new, as we have witnessed. We need to improve. All season long, "We've seen pressure and traps." Phoenix drops to 30-27 for the season as Atlanta improves to 28-28. The Atlanta Hawks play the San Antonio Spurs at home on Saturday night.
