The Atlanta Hawks have the very tough task on Thursday of trying to stop the red-hot Phoenix Suns as they enter the contest on an eleven-game winning streak. Hawks rising star Onyeka Okongwu stopped by Dukes & Bell Wednesday feeling confident about the matchup.
“I feel like they are an (NBA) Finals team. They have good chemistry and are led by Chris Paul. They’re playing good basketball but so are we. So I feel like we have what it takes to kill that (winning) streak.”
The Hawks were winners of seven straight before dropping a close 106-101 matchup vs the Toronto Raptors on Monday. The played that contest without Trae young, who continues to nurse an injured shoulder.
