Despite avenging Monday's 22-point loss in Indiana with a 115-111 defeat of the Pacers, Atlanta beat Detroit, 121-113, at State Farm Arena. That meant the Hawks had secured at least 10th place in the Eastern Conference standings with just five games left.
Brooklyn must also decide if coach Kevin Ollie did enough during his brief tenure at the helm to have the interim label removed. If not, there is almost certainly a lengthy coaching search ahead.
Also, what will become of Ben Simmons, who appeared in just 15 games this season and was sidelined indefinitely on March 7 because of more lingering back issues.
