Hawks dominate rebounding battle to confirm playoff spot in victory over Heat

The Atlanta Hawks triumphed over the Miami Heat in their play-in fixture to secure their place in the 2023 NBA Playoffs with a 116-105 victory at Kaseya Center.

Trae Young led the way with 25 points to go with eight rebounds and seven assists, with Dejounte Murray adding 18 points. For the Heat, Kyle Lowry scored 33 points off the bench, Tyler Herro added 26 points.

The Hawks’ — and Trae Young’s — recent history in this fixture in this building is well documented and the Heat would have been rightly considered favorites heading into the contest.
