The Atlanta Hawks face a significant setback as forward Jalen Johnson is ruled out for tonight's game against the Sacramento Kings due to leg inflammation. Garrison Matthews will take his place in the starting lineup alongside Trae Young and others.

Despite their offensive strengths, the Hawks struggle defensively, allowing the most three-pointers per game in the league. Trae Young, coming off a strong performance, will need to lead the team effectively to secure a win against a formidable Kings squad.
