The Atlanta Hawks returned to action on Wednesday in Philadelphia after negotiating a back-to-back on Sunday and Monday. However, it was not an ideal night for the Hawks as the Sixers battered the Hawks 127-83 for their largest margin of defeat this season.
The Hawks went into Wednesday’s game severely undermanned, missing Trae Young, Bogdan Bogdanovic and Kevin Huerter, in addition it De’Andre Hunter, Cam Reddish and Tony Snell. For the Hawks to be missing six of their best seven perimeter defenders is about a rough of a loss of personnel on the road against a Sixers side that obviously have championship aspirations.
