Super Young and Hawks win over Nets despite Durand’s 55
In a defense-defensive game, Atlanta had more options than the Nets and a crucial Trey Young in the Finals, with the All Star Guard recording 36 points (including his team’s last 9) and 10 assists. Most importantly, the hosts had more solutions and took 46 points from their bench against 12 of the Nets.
Durand did what he could with 55 points for Brooklyn, with Irving adding 31 points (but on 12/32 shooting), but no other double-digit player on the team.
For their part, the Hawks saw DiAndre Hunter and Danilo Galinari with 15 points each and Timothy Luau-Cabaro with 11 points while still having four players who scored between 8 and 9 points.
