The Atlanta Hawks were in New York on MLK Day to face the Knicks. The Hawks came in on a three-game winning streak and a big victory against the Boston Celtics in overtime on Saturday evening.
A big change in the lineup today was Onyeka Okongwu starting, as he’s been playing well during the Hawks’ winning streak. They didn’t waste any time getting him involved early in the game, and Trae Young found him on this slip pass for an easy dunk.
