The Atlanta Hawks look for their fourth straight road win when they visit the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden on Wednesday.
The Atlanta Hawks (13-12) had their six-game winning streak snapped on Sunday but have won their last three on the road as they head to Madison Square Garden on Wednesday night to take on the New York Knicks (15-9) in a quarterfinal matchup in the NBA Cup tournament. The Knicks are 5-1 in their last six games. Atlanta did not have wing Jalen Johnson in their loss on Sunday, as he sat out with a sore right shoulder, while guard Bogdan Bogdanović was out with a bruised left quad. New York is still waiting for big man Mitchell Robinson (left ankle surgery) to be cleared for basketball activities, as he’s been out for more than a year since his injury on Dec. 8, 2023.
