Atlanta Hawks vs Washington Wizards preview

The Hawks are coming off of a 115-110 win against the Milwaukee Bucks on Friday.

Trae Young led the team in scoring with 24 points, while four other players added double-doubles: Onyeka Okongwu (14 points and 12 rebounds), Dyson Daniels (15 points and 10 assists), Vit Krejci (11 points and 10 rebounds) and Mouhamed Gueye (15 points and 12 rebounds).

While Atlanta got a crucial win on Friday, it has struggled recently with a 2-8 record in the past 10 games. It needs to string together a series of wins to move up the standings and secure postseason safety.

The Wizards traded Kyle Kuzma before the trade deadline to land Khris Middleton. They also got Marcus Smart from the Memphis Grizzlies. With most of the traded players still some time away from debuting for the team, Washington suffered a 134-124 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers on Friday.

Jordan Poole had 45 points, while Richaun Holmes had a double-double of 12 points and 12 rebounds.

Both teams are expected to have tired legs in the second leg of back-to-backs.
