The team is 2nd to last in the NBA in scoring defense, giving up 124.2 PPG to their opponents.
Since Trae has been out with finger surgery, they’ve won their last two games 109-92 and 124-97.
In the 58 games the Hawks have played this season, 92 & 97 are the 1st and 2nd least points allowed by them all year.
I still think Trae can be a winning player on the right team (Spurs should trade for him), but it’s starting to look like this version of the Hawks is not a good fit for him. He needs to be surrounded by defensive minded guards and athletic bigs
