Can the Hawks Keep Their Season Alive Against the Celtics in Game 5?
It’s a must-win game for the Atlanta Hawks as they face off against the Boston Celtics in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference quarterfinal-round series on April 25, 2023, at TD Garden. The Celtics currently hold a 3-1 lead in the series, putting the Hawks’ season on the line.
The Hawks were unable to follow up their Game 3 victory with another win in Game 4, falling to the Celtics 129-121. Despite Trae Young‘s impressive performance of 35 points, 15 assists, three rebounds, and two steals, the Hawks couldn’t overcome the Celtics’ 51.7 percent shooting from the field and 40.0 percent shooting from beyond the arc.
But the Hawks aren’t out of the fight just yet. With Young leading the way and De’Andre Hunter and Dejounte Murray providing solid support, the team is looking to keep their season alive with a win in Game 5. Clint Capela and John Collins will also be crucial in the paint, while Bogdan Bogdanovic and Onyeka Okongwu will need to step up their game from beyond the arc.
Meanwhile, the Celtics will look to close out the series with another strong performance from Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown. Marcus Smart and Derrick White will also be important contributors, while Robert Williams will need to dominate the paint once again. The Celtics will be without Danilo Gallinari due to a knee injury.
As both teams battle it out on the court, fantasy basketball fans will have plenty of options to choose from. With Tatum and Brown leading the charge for the Celtics and Young continuing to shine for the Hawks, there will be plenty of opportunities for big fantasy performances.
It all comes down to Game 5 for the Hawks and the Celtics. Can the Hawks keep their season alive, or will the Celtics close out the series and advance to the next round of the playoffs? The stakes are high, and the action is sure to be intense.
