The Atlanta Hawks continued their Summer League journey on Wednesday evening with a matchup vs. the Los Angeles Lakers. Atlanta’s summer roster would be down another man for the contest, with No. 1 pick Zaccharie Risacher missing the game with what the Hawks describe as a right quad contusion. The Lakers were without their first-round selection as well, as No. 17 pick Dalton Knect did not suit up.
Los Angeles started the game on a 12-2 run, with Bronny James scoring four of those points. The Hawks would bounce back however and trailed just 21-20 heading into the second quarter.
