Raptors and Hawks both look to continue Eastern Conference ascent: Preview, start time and more

It’s been a wild week for the Toronto Raptors who, with tonight’s game, are completing a stretch of six games against the same three Eastern Conference opponents: the first-place Chicago Bulls, the second-place Miami Heat, and the Atlanta Hawks, who’ve won eight of their last nine games. The one loss? Yup, that was against Toronto.

This time around, however, Atlanta should look rather different as Trae Young is expected to be active. He was active last night, scoring 43 points en route to a victory against the league-best Phoenix Suns, and his presence will completely shake up how the Raptors gameplan for this matchup.
