The Hawks fall 90-99 to the New York Knicks. Trae Young carries the Hawks, scoring 33 points and dropping 7 assists, but the Hawks cannot hit the broadside of a barn. The Atlanta basketball team shoots just 35.5% from the field, 24.3% from three, and are not able to muster the offense to knock off the Knicks.
The Knicks get great contributions from Alec Burks(23 points, 7 rebounds, and 3 assists), Evan Fournier (20 points and 2 rebounds), R. J. Barrett (15 points and 7 boards), and Obi Toppin. Toppin provided a monster dunk in the 3rd quarter that was sure to make his father, Dunker's Delight, proud.
The Hawks face the Pacers on Wednesday night.
