The Atlanta Hawks basketball players beat the Los Angeles Lakers 99:94.
The Atlanta Hawks are playing phenomenally under Nate McMillan and now they have shown it in a duel with the Los Angeles Lakers.
The Serbian national team player recently returned from injury and provided another weak game in which he scored 9 points with 3 assists, one stolen and a block and a shot from the 4/10 game.
The Hawks also had an unpleasant situation, because the best player of the Lakers, LeBron James, was injured in the first half. He twisted his wrist, then returned to the game and scored a three-pointer for his 10th point and then went to the locker room and never came back.
Since then, it has been clear that the Lakers will have a very hard time defeating the Atlanta Hawks, who without any major problems created a double-digit advantage that they successfully held until the end with a dominant game in the racket and a solid shot from outside.
The game started very hard, as you can see from the final result, and the Lakers mostly relied on LeBron James, who scored 7 points in that period of the game, while a special part was given to Rajon Rondo, the man who participated in winning the championship. title.
At the beginning of the second half, Bogdanović scored his first points, the Hawks mostly dominated the racket through Collins and Kapela, and the worst moment for them was the injury of LeBron James after the duel with Solomon Hill.
The Lakers could not “buy” a basket in the second half without LeBron, and Atlanta has already built an unattainable double-digit advantage there.
Montrez Herel and Denis Schroeder played almost alone, and McMillan gave more minutes to players from the bench, such as Bogdan Bogdanovic and Danilo Galinari.
There was little drama at the end of the game, when the Lakers connected some good minutes, and Atlanta missed almost everything, directed by Hurter and Young.
In the end, the victory with the result of 99:94 with 27 points and 15 rebounds by Collins, 18 were scored by Galinari, 14 by Young with 11 assists, Bogdanović with 10 points, and Kapela 8 with 16 rebounds.
In the ranks of the Lakers, 23 points are Herel, 16 Schroeder, 12 Morris and 10 LeBron James, who played very little due to injury.
