The Atlanta Hawks are the worst team in the NBA when it comes to valuing the basketball. They average 17.8 turnovers per game and they continued their messy display in this game too.

The Hawks finished the game with 21 turnovers, allowing easy chances for the Mavs' offense. The Mavs could only get 15 points off turnovers but those points played a major role in a tight game like this.

John Collins had 5 turnovers for the game, Huerter and Bembry had 4 each. The Hawks are not a good NBA team at the moment, and they need to improve upon a lot of areas if they want to become competitive again.

The Hawks are currently lying at the 14th position in the Eastern Conference playoff standings. They next face the red hot Boston Celtics who won a tantalizing encounter against the Washington Wizards that went into overtime.
