I like Charlotte to win at home as a 2.5pt favorite.
Hopefully our young Hawks play well.

My eyes are on Cam. seems like every time he has a good game, it’s days before he plays again. 17 vs MIL, then missed a few games after. 25 vs BK and we aren’t scheduled to play for four days. Just want him to keep the momentum.

Nice to have Huerter back. Now just to add Collins back into the mix and see what you guys actually have.

Indeed. At full strength, we were pretty tough early. Hope we re-capture that once Collins returns.

Made the trip up to Charlotte for the game so it was really nice to get a win for the sake of the bus ride home.
Huerter is a game changer. He actually knows what to do with the ball when they trap Trae and give us an opportunity to play 4 on 3.
