With Capela in the know: Atlanta consolidates the last play-in spot

class=”sc-cffd1e67-0 iQNQmc”>

Certainly, the wins against the Portland Trail Blazers and before that against the Charlotte Hornets are must-wins for Atlanta. These two opponents (just like six other teams) can no longer qualify for the play-offs. In between, Atlanta proves that it can also beat top teams with its victory over leader Boston Celtics – after trailing 38:68 (!)

Capela is still in good shape. He achieved another double-double with 13 points and 10 rebounds. Capela has reached double figures in points and rebounds in nine of the last 10 games, and the only time he hasn’t, he’s only missed a rebound.

With their home winning streak, the Atlanta Hawks stabilize in the last play-in spot. The Brooklyn Nets, the only team left challenging Atlanta for this spot, are 10 points behind with Brooklyn still having nine games remaining. The Atlanta Hawks have ten games left in the regular season.

Draymond Green with his fourth sack of the season

Draymond Green of the Golden State Warriors also manages to fly off the field again. After just four minutes, Green had to take an early shower due to two technical fouls. Green was sent off for the fourth time this season; In December he was given a 16-match suspension for hitting an opponent. The Golden State Warriors currently occupy the last play-in spot in the West (like Atlanta in the East). (SDA)
