Tonight, the Atlanta Hawks face the Phoenix Suns, concluding their six-game road trip with Trae Young available to play, alongside Onyeka Okongwu, while Bogdan Bogdanovic's status remains questionable. The Hawks, struggling without Jalen Johnson, have posted a 2-3 record during this trip, while the Suns, led by Mike Budenholzer, have faltered from their early-season promise, currently sitting outside the playoff picture in the Western Conference.
Despite their challenges, the Hawks rank 6th in the league in points per game. They will depend heavily on Trae Young, who has recently showcased his playmaking abilities with impressive statistical performances. Meanwhile, the Suns will aim to leverage their talent but have been hampered by underwhelming individual performances from stars like Devin Booker.
