The Atlanta Hawks had a first half to forget with only John Collins and Kevin Huerter being able to hold their heads up high. The second half was a different story
The Atlanta Hawks found themselves in a 19 point hole at the end of the first half which was largely down to the fact they could not score against a zone defense. The Hornets play more zone than any other team so it should have been a big part of the scouting report.
The Hawks went 1-of-10 from deep in the first quarter before finishing the half 4-of-18 from behind the line.
