Atlanta Hawks

Newell and Gueye are out against Lakers with Landale questionable.

“The Hawks are currently 1.5-point home underdogs against the Lakers tonight… if you enjoy that sort of thing. Jock Landale is questionable for Atlanta, with Newell, Gueye, Gilbert, Veesaar out. 2nd night of a B2B for L.A., so no injury report yet. Luka missed last night.”

Ejiofor is physical and rebounding with more skill than people expect.

“He's going to be physical. He's going to rebound. He's going to guard. And then he's more skilled than people will probably give him credit for.”
