The Boston Celtics head to Georgia to face the Atlanta Hawks as they hope to stop their recent slump, having now dropped two games in a row and dropped below .500 for the first time since the third game of the 2020-21 season.
With two freshly-minted All-Stars in forwards Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum, the Celtics hope to stop the bleeding and re-establish a winning culture that has eluded them for some time. The Hawks are in a similar situation after having lost seven of their last 10 games, and now have home court advantage after splitting their away-and-away series with Boston last week.
