The Hawks visited the new Intuit Dome and their giant fan wall for the first time. Sadly, Jalen Johnson and Bogdan Bogdanovic were ruled out of this contest after both played against the Lakers last night.
It was another first on the other side as well — the first game of the season for Kawhi Leonard. He was reportedly on a minutes restriction, but he’s often been a thorn in Atlanta’s side in recent matchups, so the team was on high alert.
The Hawks used some defense early to generate points in transition.
