NBA MLK Day game: Heat vs. Hawks start time, TV channel, and How to watch Jimmy Butler vs. Trae Young
Martin Luther King Jr., an activist for civil rights, was born in Atlanta, Georgia, on January 15, 1929. Considering this, it’s no surprise that the Atlanta Hawks typically play at home on Martin Luther King Jr. Day. In one of nine games scheduled for Thanksgiving Day, the Hawks will host Jimmy Butler and the Heat. In the first round of the 2022 NBA Playoffs, Miami and Atlanta met, and Miami ultimately prevailed in five games.
While Hawks star Trae Young struggled to the tune of 15.4 points per game on 31.9 percent shooting, Jimmy Butler led the charge for the Heat with 30.5 points, 7.8 rebounds, and 5.3 assists per game in the series. In the first meeting of the season, Bam Adebayo of the Heat was a major factor. Who do you think will prevail in the final round?
