The Hawks got some good health update — plus one late-breaking bad one. Kobe Bufkin appeared for the first time this season and Bogdan Bogdanovic returned after missing all but the opening night game.
But a late scratch to Jalen Johnson moved Garrison Mathews into the starting lineup for this matchup with the Kings.
Zaccharie Risacher got the party started with nine early points, and the Hawks as a group jumped out to a 17-6 lead behind threes from Risacher and Dyson Daniels.
