Welcome to Opposition Intel!
The Atlanta Hawks may have only had one night off, but it will be a welcome relief for the team to return to basketball, and get away from the recent events that have had them in the news off the court.
With the latest development in the story surrounding the arrest of Pero Antic and Thabo Sefolosha, it has emerged that Sefolosha has a broken leg and will miss the remainder of the season.
The Hawks will look to put that to the back of their mind with a victory over Charlotte tonight though, particularly seen as the banner for winning the Southeast division will be raised in Philips Arena before the game.
