In this game, Trae Young, the core player of the Hawks, played well, he scored 33 points and 14 assists, and became a major contributor to the team's victory. This game also gave fans a glimpse of the Eagles' strength in the new season, and they are expected to continue to win in the next games, bringing more surprises and excitement to the fans.
In this game, at the beginning of the first quarter of the game between the Hawks and the Wizards, the Hawks players were a little nervous in the face of the Wizards who were fighting away, and they were obviously a little uncomfortable with the opponent's offensive rhythm at the beginning of the game, and after the end of the first quarter, the Wizards led the Hawks by 4 points. After a period of adjustment, the Eagles began to gradually adapt to the rhythm of the game, and through hard defense and excellent offensive performances, they gradually tied the score, and in the middle and late stages of the game, the score was overtaken. Although in the game, the Eagles once trailed the opponent by 17-4 in the score, but in the face of adversity, the Eagles, who are good at counterattacking in adversity, did not give up, and under the leadership of veteran Trae Young, other teammates also stepped forward, making the score gradually balanced. Throughout the first half, Trae Young played well, scoring 40 points, 3 rebounds and 13 assists in the game, showing his extraordinary strength.
Other teammates also had outstanding performances, including Murray contributing 32 points, Johnson scoring 24 points and breaking a whopping 13 rebounds, and Bogdanovic contributing 12 points, one rebound and one assist. In this game, the Wizards' players showed their excellent quality on the road, and although they won a certain advantage in the first quarter (30-28) after the start of the game, they struggled to withstand the Hawks' attack in the second and third quarters, and the score of the two teams was always in a stalemate. In both quarters, Kispert and Jones combined to score 15 and 14 points for the Wizards, while Poole and Muscala also contributed 13 and 10 points, and although the scores were very close, the Hawks' strength gradually showed as the game progressed. Especially in the third quarter of the game, the Hawks' Murray and Capela showed super strength, and they successfully helped the team get out of the deficit and widen the score gap with the Wizards, and their advantage reached 12 points. As the game went on, the situation gradually became clearer, and the Eagles, with the help of Young's excellent push and unique skills, gradually mastered the rhythm of the game, and finally won the game by a slight advantage of 130-126.
At this juncture, the Wizards once narrowed the gap to only three points, and they could not achieve a comeback after all. For the Wizards, under the double pressure of facing the injury of the main player and the big score behind, their competitive form is already in jeopardy. At the crucial moment, despite the Wizards' best efforts to try to save the game, in the end they failed to seize their chances and missed the opportunity to turn the game around.
The Hawks have been at the top of the Eastern Conference in the NBA 2022-23 season, and they have shown great strength and consistency in their games, and their defensive and offensive abilities have been excellent. Although the Wizards lost a game, they are still in the playoff ranks and will need to invest more in their efforts and play at their best in order to compete for a higher standings.
Trae Young is a very good player, his performances in the game have always been in the spotlight, he has great technique and scoring ability, his shooting is very accurate, and he is able to play his best in the game.
