When you’re 6-1 in a seven-game homestand … Not too shabby.
The Brooklyn Nets secured their 15th victory of the season with a down-to-the-wire 120-116 victory over the Atlanta Hawks. Brooklyn has won nine of their last 12 games and is 14-4 against the Hawks since the 2017-18 season, the best in the league over that timespan.
Kyrie Irving had an exceptional performance to follow up his clutch showing against Charlotte. Irving finished with 33 points and 11 rebounds, only the fourth time in his career that he’s finished with at least 30 points and 10 rebounds in a game.
