The Portland Trail Blazers find themselves coming off a win for the first time since before the All-Star break. Josh Hart was the hero in Portland’s 127-118 victory over the Washington Wizards, scoring 44 points, just 39 points more than his previous outing against the Utah Jazz.
The Atlanta Hawks are having a disappointing year, hanging around the play-in spot when many though they would be challenging for a much higher seed. The Hawks could still make a charge but they need to make their move soon if they want that to happen. On Sunday evening Atlanta held off the Indiana Pacers 131-128, with Trae Young dropping 47.
