Starter Grades:

B +. Trae came up huge in the 4th quarter, a major reason the Hawks won the game. While it wasn’t the 50-point night he had the game before, he looked poised against rampant double-teams and split the defense inside when his three wasn’t dropping. He recorded his 22nd double-double on the season with 25 points and 10 assists.. PG. Atlanta Hawks. TRAE YOUNG

Atlanta Hawks. KEVIN HUERTER. C -. <a rel=. SG

G/F. Atlanta Hawks. CAM REDDISH. B. Cam got the start with <a rel=

Atlanta Hawks. JOHN COLLINS. A. John Collins seemed to be the only Hawk with any offensive life in the first half, keeping the team alive single-handily at times. Despite having the hot hand, Collins never rushed any ‘heat check-y’ shots nor did he force anything down low. He played consistent, mistake-free basketball that resulted in him tying his career high in points with 35. He nearly made half of the team’s threes, going 3-3 from range, adding 17 rebounds. He’s on pace for a 20-10 season, and tonight was probably his best game.. PF

C. There’s just something a bit off in Dedmon’s game since he returned to Atlanta, and he hasn’t been as efficient as last year. He was in foul trouble again tonight, racking up five in his 24 minutes, but swatted away two balls for blocks. Dedmon went 0-3 from long distance, and took a few less than ideal shots down low, including an ill-advised, Dirk-like fade. His 12 rebounds were appreciated however.. C. Atlanta Hawks. DEWAYNE DEDMON
