He made all seven of his field goal attempts and had 14 points early in the second quarter, more than the rest of the Hawks starters combined at the time.</div> Source
Good to hear some good news for the hawks after all the bad news, i dont know if its just me but they seem like they've been rebuilding forever.
He had another impressive game against Portland with 22 points, 12 rebounds (6 offensive), 6 assists, 5 steals and just two turnovers after starting and playing every minute of an overtime game.
If he can find a way to consitently score, and keep up his steals and blocks, I think he will become a very good fantasy player for next year.
