|
| | | ATLANTA: GUARDS: It was a rocky offseason for JEFF TEAGUE, who looked like a goner at one point. Instead, he'll be the focal point of Atlanta's offense . . . Coming off a torn ACL, resident gunner LOUIS WILLIAMS is a question mark entering the season, especially as a guy who relied so much on quickness and explosiveness. He may not be right again until 2014-15 . . . JOHN JENKINS was rock solid as a rookie and should see a bump in playing time with DeShawn Stevenson gone. Jenkins is a legit shooter who can hold his own defensively . . . Rookie DENNIS SCHRODER is a year or two away from consistent minutes, but the penniless man's Rajon Rondo comparisons aren't off . . . JARED CUNNINGHAM is a middling talent destined for a minor role. FORWARDS: PAUL MILLSAP was lost in the shuffle in Utah last year, but he'll be a significant part of this offense in Atlanta. He's a well-rounded power forward and may prove to be a better fit than Josh Smith was for the Hawks . . . KYLE KORVER is coming off a huge year and will play major minutes at both wing spots again . . . A shadow of his former self, ELTON BRAND will rotate in at power forward and center . . . This generation's junkyard dog, DEMARRE CARROLL gives Atlanta some defensive options on the wing and energy off the bench. Outside of some transition baskets, he's a non-factor on offense . . . Euro veteran PERO ANTIC is a finesse stretch four who provides frontcourt depth. CENTERS: After playing a lot of power forward alongside Zaza Pachulia last year, AL HORFORD will spend most of this season at center. With Josh Smith gone, he's poised to have his biggest offensive numbers ever . . . GUSTAVO AYON has proven capable of eating up some space on the second unit. He'll be the second big off the bench after Elton Brand. | | WASHINGTON: GUARDS: Late last year, JOHN WALL finally started to fulfill his promising talent. He got wherever he wanted on the court, and the Wizards were very tough to guard with all the shooters surrounding him . . . BRADLEY BEAL and Wall should mesh beautifully. Beal is a potentially elite shooter, and he rebounds very well for a guard . . . ERIC MAYNOR is fully healthy again after tearing his ACL two seasons ago. He can play some alongside Wall, but mostly he'll be the league's best back-up point guard again . . . GLEN RICE JR. doesn't shoot it nearly as well as his father, but he's an athlete who could break into the rotation down the line . . . GARRETT TEMPLE is insurance in case Wall or Maynor goes down. FORWARDS: The Wizards need NENÊ’S low post offense. It seems inevitable that they'll have to cap his minutes . . . OTTO PORTER is likely to step into the starting lineup early on. They need his defense, as he can guard twos through fours . . . MARTELL WEBSTER will platoon with Porter, providing another outstanding shooter for Wall to feed . . . TREVOR ARIZA is playing out the string on an untradeable deal . . . TREVOR BOOKER has some use as a screener and low-post banger, but not much else . . . AL HARRINGTON may be inefficient, but he can score points in a hurry and is a decent defender'JAN VESELY is still trying to figure out the NBA, though it's too early to give up on his athleticism . . . CHRIS SINGLETON can defend, but he's no more than a garbage-time player due to his atrocious offense. CENTERS: EMEKA OKAFOR may be absurdly overpaid, but he's settled in as a passable starter who helps defensively and doesn't hurt on offense. He'll also miss the beginning of the season with a herniated disc . . . With Okafor's deal expiring at the end of the year, KEVIN SERAPHIN is auditioning to be Washington's center of the future. After showing promise two seasons ago, he was a disaster last season. |

*Hawks-Wizards Preview* =======================
By NOEY KUPCHAN STATS Writer
Atlanta (9-8) at Washington (7-9), 7:00 p.m. EDT
The Washington Wizards put together a solid stretch before getting outplayed their last time out.
The Southeast Division-rival Atlanta Hawks, meanwhile, are coming off a much-needed win.
Washington opens a four-game homestand Saturday night against Hawks, who have dominated the series over the years.
While the Wizards (7-9) appeared to have turned a corner after winning five of six, they took a step back in Friday's one-sided 93-73 loss at NBA-best Indiana. Marcin Gortat (17) and Trevor Ariza (14) were the only two players to score in double figures as Washington was held to a season low in points.
The Wizards, averaging 17.4 fast-break points to rank near the top of the NBA, failed to score any and committed 18 turnovers that led to 26 Pacers points.
"When we did get in the open court we turned the ball over," said coach Randy Wittman, whose team was outscored 28-14 in the first quarter. "They got back and jammed the lane. That was the opposite of how we wanted to play."
Washington may be able to bounce back at home, where it has averaged 106.0 points in winning three straight. While the Wizards beat Atlanta 93-83 in the last matchup Jan. 12, they have lost 18 of 20 in the series dating to March 2008.
The Hawks (9-8) had been outscored by an average of 17.6 points during a three-game losing streak before bouncing back with Friday's 88-87 win over Dallas. Al Horford made a go-ahead 20-foot jumper with 4.2 seconds left as Atlanta stormed back from 17 down in the second half.
"That wasn't how we planned it," Horford told the NBA's official website. "Jeff (Teague) was double-teamed so he kicked it to me. We've worked so much on that pick-and-pop over the years. I feel comfortable taking that shot."
The Hawks held the Mavericks scoreless over the final 3:26 and outscored them 23-2 in transition. Teague had a game-high 25 points while Horford finished with 17 and 12 rebounds.
"I just took what the defense gave me," Horford said.
Teague is averaging a team-leading 17.4 points for the Hawks, who are 8-2 when he scores at least 16. The fifth-year guard is averaging 16.3 in his last four matchups with Washington.
The Wizards will be looking for a bounce-back performance from John Wall, who was held to a season-low eight points on 4-of-14 shooting against the Pacers. Washington is 6-3 when he scores at least 15 compared to 1-6 when he doesn't.
Wall, who has averaged 16.4 in eight career games against the Hawks, is scoring 21.3 per game at home this season, significantly higher than his road mark of 17.2.
Hawks forward Kyle Korver may miss a third straight game with a rib injury. He has made at least one 3-pointer in 88 consecutive games, one shy of Dana Barros' all-time record.
Korver has gone 21 of 37 (56.8 percent) from beyond the arc over his last seven road contests.
The Wizards continue to play without Bradley Beal (20.6 PPG) due to a leg injury, and No. 3 overall draft pick Otto Porter remains sidelined with a troublesome hip. Nene, averaging 20.4 points in five home games, is also uncertain to be available after sitting out Friday with a sore Achilles tendon.
Atlanta is 3-1 on the road against Eastern Conference opponents.
