Starter Grades:

TRAE YOUNG. D +. Trae’s obviously not at 100%, and struggled to hit wide open shots that he usually makes with a hand in his face. He made just four of 16 shots for 16 points, his least since February 1st. He did a good job setting up his teammates, but they just failed to make the shots. Despite, he still managed four assists, adding five rebounds. Trae was also notably worse on defense than usual.. PG. Atlanta Hawks

C -. 11 points on 11 shots for Huerter, who also had his fair share of misses on open looks. He played his patented “just fine” defense, and led the team in assist with six. He also turned the ball over four times, adding two steals.. SG. Atlanta Hawks. KEVIN HUERTER

SF. Atlanta Hawks. DE'ANDRE HUNTER. F. Another bad night for the rook who continues to be extremely up and down. Tonight he shot 2-11 en route to fouling out in just 28 minutes. He looked lost on both ends of the court occasionally, and made a few bone-headed plays. Not good.

A +. As it’s been a few times of late, <a rel=. PF. Atlanta Hawks. JOHN COLLINS

F. Dedmon was insistent on continuing to take the three, despite it never falling. He went 0-7 from deep, 1-11 from the field in general, all while being bullied by <a rel=. C. Atlanta Hawks. DEWAYNE DEDMON
