The Atlanta Hawks faced off against the Orlando Magic on Friday night, and they quickly found themselves engaged in a rock fight with a young and feisty squad. The Hawks would correct early game wrongs, find their footing, and put away the visitors by the score of 108-98.
Trae Young, in particular, personified the tale of two halves with just two points on 0-for-7 shooting, although he did log eight assists en route to a second consecutive 13 assist performance. Friday was the first time being held without a field goal in a half since a March 16, 2022 matchup with the Charlotte Hornets.
