Preseason Preview: Atlanta Hawks vs. San Antonio Spurs

The Atlanta Hawks defeated the Memphis Grizzlies on Thursday 104-83, and everyone looked nice.

Walter Tavares lead the Hawks in both points and rebounds with 15 and 10. The Hawks got the job done without Tim Hardaway Jr, Tiago Splitter, Mike Scott, Jarrett Jack, or Paul Millsap. Tonight, the Hawks will face a tougher match-up, the San Antonio Spurs.

The Spurs have been viewed as Atlanta’s older brother since Coach Budenholzer took over as the head coach. Budenholzer was a student of Greg Poppovich and he brought that pick-heavy, pass first, 3-shooting culture to the Atlanta Hawks franchise.
