Atlanta Hawks lineup possibility No. 2)  The incumbent gets the job back.

The second option for the Hawks is that Reddish comes back into the starting lineup if his minute restrictions are lifted. This would reward Reddish for the good game that he played last time out against the Minnesota Timberwolves.

So, this lineup would be the same as the one on the previous slide but with Reddish at the starting two-guard role, pushing Huerter to the bench. This lineup was successful at the start of the season before Reddish (and others) fell into a shooting slump.

This gives the Hawks the strongest defensive lineup that they can go with and continue scoring at the same level. Reddish is so disruptive in the passing lanes which is one of the keys to stopping Antetokounmpo and the Bucks.

The other positive of this lineup is that the Hawks can build a wall in the paint, stopping the penetration and kick out opportunities that the Bucks can create thanks to their superstar point forward.

Again, if Hunter can’t play Reddish should move to the wing slot, and Huerter moves back into the starting lineup as the two-guard. Also if Young is out then Rondo would start at the point. The first lineup is more preferable at the moment because they have a good thing going. Let us hope that everyone is healthy and the Hawks can get their fourth straight win.
