He’s playing. Listed as probable on the official nba.com report.
But why would he even be probable? Did he tweak something?

I think the Hawks have had him questionable for every game all year. It's just something they do.

Trae has been battling an achilles 'thing' for most of the season.

Serious question, do we want to win this game and face BOS or do we want a rematch against CLE?

Personally, we aren't good enough to assume a win in the next one. Just win this one.

I’d rather just win tonight and get the four days off.

Agreed. Plus.... I rather play Boston to be honest. Cavs ... I just am not a fan of playing against mobley and allen

I take my chances with a smaller team that relies HEAVILY on 3pt shooting...either way, it's an uphill battle, but I like the matchup better with BOS.

Hey, this just hit me that this game is nationally televised. Oh, bother.

Go Magic, Go Dwight, Go Vuc, Go Paolo, Go Keegan :)

I feel like we should win this but... I'm not feeling good about it after looking at our season offensive (literally :lol:) numbers. We'll see if KCP, CoJo, Harris, AB, and Houstan hit their shots at a respectable clip.

I'm also super interested to see how well Franz plays. It would be nice to see November Franz show up.

Why would they? The Magic were a .500 team and the Hawks were under .500. Let's be real, these two teams are not serious about winning.
