The Nets lost to the Hawks 117-112 on Wednesday in a game that was back-and-forth in the first half before the game became much closer in the second half. Forward Michael Porter Jr. led the way for Brooklyn with 32 points and nine rebounds while Cam Thomas had 19 points and three assists during a game that was a struggle for him in terms of his overall shooting.

The Hawks started 0-for-6 from the field, and the Hawks then they made their next six shots in a row to cut their deficit down to just one point. Trae Young was a part of the offensive surge, and got his own and-one to go in the process.
