Atlanta return home looking to get themselves back in this series with only their second win in six games.

The Hawks started April with a three-game win streak, but lost their final two games of the regular season as they were beaten 136-131 in overtime Philadelphia and then lost 116-105 in Boston.

They bounced back in the Play-In tournament though, downing Miami 116-105 on the toad to set up this playoff series with Boston.
