The Hawks are on fire, winning six straight games and sitting fifth in the Eastern Conference. Meanwhile, the Lakers are struggling, losing their third game in a row. Despite LeBron’s impressive stats, the team has dropped to No. 10 in the West.
The game was a rollercoaster. Both teams were tied at halftime, and the Lakers even had a solid lead in the third quarter. But Atlanta fought back, trading leads until the very end.
In overtime, Anthony Davis put the Lakers ahead, but Young’s clutch shot stole the show. Next up, the Lakers will face the Trail Blazers at home, while the Hawks will host the Nuggets. Can’t wait to see what happens next!
