Hawks top Heat in final preseason game

The Atlanta Hawks wrapped up their preseason campaign with a dominant victory over the Miami Heat, 127-92, at State Farm Arena on Thursday night to finish 2-2 on the preseason.

Trae Young put on a storming performance as he scored 27 points and dished out 15 assists while De’Andre Hunter added 19 points. For the visiting Heat, Javonte Smart scored 20 points while Max Strus added 18 points.

Heading into this fixture, it was clear what this game was going to be for the Hawks: “dress rehearsal” — the Hawks were going to play as many of their guys as they can and play them for three quarters, with the exception of Clint Capela, who was on a minutes restriction last night.
