Hawks vs Hornets Preview

The Hawks finished with a .500 mark last year (41-41). Atlanta fell in the first round of the playoffs to the Boston Celtics in six games (4-2). Atlanta scored 118.4 points per game last year, with Trae Young pacing the team. For the first time in his career, Young averaged a double-double (26.2 points and 10.2 rebounds per game).

Barring any injuries, Atlanta could roll out a starting lineup of Young, Dejounte Murray, De’Andre Hunter, Saddiq Bey and Clint Capela. This offseason, the Hawks also added Patty Mills and Wesley Matthews.

On the other side, Charlotte finished with a 27-55 record last season. The team is looking to make the playoffs for the first time since the 2015-2016 season.

The Hornets have some things to look forward to the season, however. They selected Brandon Miller with the No. 2 overall pick, and they also have a healthy LaMelo Ball to start the season. Ball only appeared and 36 games last year due to injury, and it should help the team immensely to have his facilitating skills available.

Charlotte averaged just 111 points a game last year, shooting 45.7% as a team. A starting lineup featuring Ball, Terry Rozier, Mark Williams, PJ Washington and Gordon Hayward should kick the season off. Expect Miller to rotate in behind Hayward, with the potential for his minutes to increase if he plays well.

Injury-wise, Charlotte will be without guard Bryce McGowens (ankle). The Hawks have a clean bill of health entering this game.


Hawks vs Hornets: What They’re Saying

“It all makes sense when you watch him play. If he’s open, he shoots it. If not, he moves it. Everything he does at both ends of the floor. If you watch and you say that was the best decision, and you don’t get that with a lot of the younger players anymore. To me, he’s very unique in that way. He’s fit in well. He’s off to a good start.” — Charlotte Hornets head coach Steve Clifford on rookie Brandon Miller.

“This season is about hard work. I would like for that to be characteristic of our system, us being a selfless team is huge and you can point to that in so many different areas, whether it’s taking the charge, making the extra pass, running back on defense, celebrating your teammates successes, all those different things.” — Atlanta Hawks head coach Quin Snyder.
