Game Time: 8:00 PM EDT on Friday October 14, 2022
Atlanta Hawks 0, New Orleans Pelicans 0 (8:00 pm ET)
What’s the buzz on Twitter?

Murray drew 3 Pelicans defenders driving in before kicking it out to Frank Kaminsky at the top of the key. Was a good look but didn’t go down. But the unit of A. Holiday, Murray, J. Holiday, Johnson and Kaminsky has been productive. 18-4 run, Pelican 44, Hawks 42; 6:57 in 2Q. – 8:57 PM

Fro, T-Shirt B.I. up to 11 points (4-4), 3 assists so far 🔥 pic.twitter.com/fHZy3doxfG – 8:53 PM

McCollum called for the switch to get Jalen Johnson. But Johnson stayed in front of him and forced a shot clock violation. – 8:51 PM

Jalen Johnson just forced a shot-clock violation guarding CJ McCollum. – 8:51 PM

Dyson Daniels showing off his leaping ability in 1H with an offensive rebound where he jumped over everyone, then going 1-on-2 to draw a foul at the rim – 8:49 PM

Dejounte drives and kicks to Jalen Johnson, who misses the three, but Dejounte gets a layup on a 2nd chance.
On the way back down the floor, Dejounte told Jalen to keep shooting. – 8:47 PM

This first quarter isn’t going to stop fans from dreaming about the Pelicans making a deep playoff run.
Ingram was unstoppable in his first minutes, with a slew of others looking good and contributing. Pelicans flat out whipped the Hawks and lead 40-24. – 8:45 PM

40 in the first ✅

Hawks get a much-needed 3 from Jalen Johnson but they’re still down double-digits w/ 22.2 remaining in the 1Q. CJ McCollum is at the line and splits a pair of FTs. Pelicans 40, Hawks 24. – 8:43 PM

Our bench was hyped for @Brandon Ingram’s first 3️⃣ pic.twitter.com/HjESy5nCt5 – 8:41 PM



Dyson Daniels guards John Collins, and then on the next Hawks possession, stays in front of Trae Young and forces a difficult 3, which missed.
Daniels has been a defensive dynamo in just about every minute of preseason. – 8:40 PM

With no Capela tonight, John Collins slides over to play C after Okongwu exits. – 8:36 PM

Jalen Johnson is in for Onyeka Okongwu. Right now it’s Young, A. Holiday, J. Holiday, Johnson and Collins. – 8:33 PM

“YES SIR!”
CJ on the steal,
Trey with the strong finish! pic.twitter.com/PyJEDssH6Q – 8:30 PM


Trey Murphy showing he can do more than just shoot 3s and he flushes a dunk on the fastbreak – 8:28 PM



De’Andre Hunter picks up his 3rd foul w/ 7:07 left in 1Q and the Hawks send in Justin Holiday in his place. – 8:23 PM

A finish at the rim, hit a middy baseline, drills a 3 and now a middy from the free throw line.
I’d say Brandon Ingram is in midseason form just 4 minutes into preseason action. – 8:22 PM

Brandon Ingram giving the Hawks buckets and I don’t think he’s broke a sweat. – 8:22 PM


Alabama alum right at home!
