The Atlanta Hawks picked up their 16th road win of the season in rare form versus one of its arch-nemesis, Miami Heat in the Kaseya Center behind its bench play and led by a triple-double from its newly-named 2026 All-Star, Jalen Johnson.

Entering Tuesday's contest, highlighted by honoring the 20-year anniversary of MIA's World Championship team, ATL was 4-14 in its last 18 meetings in South Beach yet arrived prepared and on a mission displaying efficient shooting, a simple play style and oozing with confidence despite a poor defensive performance a few days earlier versus Indiana.

DeShaun Tate and Tenitra Batiste expound on Atlanta's success with ball protection, defense and floor spacing despite overmatched with frontcourt size with the absence of Kristaps Porzingis and Onyeka Okongwu.

For the 2nd time in 5 days, the Atlanta Hawks look the Indiana Pacers in the face, this time at Gainbridge Fieldhouse with 2 of its returning starters, Zaccharie Risacher and Jalen Johnson.

In need of a win in a winnable game, Atlanta showcased one of its worse defensive efforts of the season albeit while still forcing 20+ turnovers failed to capitalize down the stretch with a turnover of their own including failure to convert on critically costly free-throws.

DeShaun Tate & Tenitra Batiste address 2nd half shooting woes, how the team ruined Jalen Johnson's special night and ATL's frontcourt reality/concerns.

The Atlanta Hawks utilize its high-powered offensive backcourt to push the Houston Rockets to the brink in the first half and much of the 3rd Quarter before the Rockets took off on a 12- 1 run.

Size mattered on Thursday night at State Farm Arena between two franchises, both on the back end of back-to-back contests despite a low scoring first half. Entering the game on a 4-game winning streak was the Hawks who was forced to put forth their best efforts in the backcourt due to inactivity from Jalen Johnson, Zaccharie Risacher, Onyeka Okongwu and Kristaps Porzingis.

DeShaun Tate & Tenitra Batiste elaborate on Corey Kispert's value, scoring options after Nickeil Alexander-Walker/CJ McCollum and how ATL competed in paint scoring.

In a rematch from a meeting less than 2 weeks ago, Atlanta Hawks stand on business and win their 4th consecutive game including their 3rd in a row versus Boston in Massachusetts.

After ATL jumped out to a 26-9 run from the tip, they extended a 32-11 run and never looked back by replying with a converted basket to Boston's efforts to cut the deficit albeit with physicality and efficient shooting during a chippy contest.

DeShaun Tate and Tenitra Batiste dissect how Atlanta's pace and floor spacing made life difficult for the Celtics including elite defense, ball protection and balanced scoring among its roster with 6 players recording double figures in scoring.

The Atlanta Hawks extend its win streak to 5 of its last 6 versus the Memphis Grizzlies at the FedEx Forum to snap a 4-game losing streak and continue their dominance on the road versus the Western Conference that showcased a combination of 35+ ties & lead changes.

Former Grizzly, Luke Kennard reminded Memphis of his shooting abilities as a perimeter threat shooting 80% from distance and tallying 18 points as ATL's leading bench scorer. Atlanta held Memphis' top 2 scoring options to a combination of 2/8 from deep (25% each) and 10 of the Grizzlies 18 total turnovers.

DeShaun Tate and Tenitra Batiste evaluate Christian Koloko, examine Atlanta's slow starts, perimeter threat roster construction, the re-emergence of Jalen Johnson and the primary objective entering Wednesday's contest.

Over the years there's been countless battles between the Atlanta Hawks and the Boston Celtics that have dwindled down to the wire. That wasn't the case on Saturday evening at State Farm Arena.

Starters, Jaylen Brown & Sam Hauser combined for more than Boston's total points (71). It has become evident that not only is ATL in need of more frontcourt depth but in addition there appears to be a consistent pattern of injuries to key contributors ie. Dyson Daniels, Zaccharie Risacher and Kristaps Porzingis.

DeShaun Tate & Tenitra Batiste address the life of the Atlanta Hawks in the post-Trae Young era, relative recent struggles for budding star Jalen Johnson, the primary focus after a 3-game losing streak and the 2nd Quarter Turning Point.
