In the Nation's Capital on Saturday evening, the Atlanta Hawks relied on their newcomers after the trade deadline to string together a victory versus the Washington Wizards who once appeared to be a thorn in Atlanta's side.

ATL's backcourt led by Trae Young, Zaccharie Risacher, Vit Krejci and newcomer Georges Niang checked the perimeter shooting efficiency box en route to a 2-game win streak with only 2 games remaining until the all-star break.

DeShaun Tate recaps the result including what you need to see in the last 2 games leading into all-star weekend, letter grades for Georges Niang, Caris LeVert & Terance Mann and the burning question, is "just competing" a good or bad thing?
