Hawks Soar to Spectrum Center for Showdown with Hornets

The Hawks' scoring has been impressive, averaging around 122 points over their past three games. Their shooting efficiency has been solid with field goal percentages hovering around 52 percent and effective field goal percentages reaching up to 61 percent.
