I asked Gallo about Trae Young scoring 14 points for the Hawks in the final 2:17 of the third quarter:
“It was great, and that’s something we know he can do every night. When he does it, those moments, it’s impossible to guard him.” – 11:06 PM

ATL won. Only realistic chance to push BKN to 9th now is if CLE can beat BKN on Friday *AND* ATL can win out (but they play in MIA) or CHA can win out (but they play in CHI). pic.twitter.com/Wn9nH3g0J9 – 10:20 PM

Porzingis’ injury and Gafford going on health and safety protocols put a wrench into that initially

Why did Wes Unseld Jr. call the two timeouts he’s called? He did so because the Wizards’ defense twice now has failed to pick up 3-point shooters in transition, leading to easy open 3s. That’s a preventable problem. – 8:28 PM
