Al Horford remains out of the lineup for Atlanta following right pectoral surgery. In the first two meetings against Washington, Horfrod averaged 25 PPG and nine rebounds.
"Right now, what we need to do is we need to play better in longer stretches," coach Mike Budenholzer told NBA.com about the Hawks. "Sometimes it's how we start the game, it isn't where we want it to be and how we want to start. Other times, it's different periods in the game but I think our group battled despite the poor start."
His absence should help a Wizards team that was outscored 60-48 in the paint by the Raptors.
"We had trouble guarding off the dribble tonight," said coach Randy Wittman, who was ejected in the fourth quarter. "We defended pretty much a lot of their sets and then it gets down to seven, eight seconds on the shot clock and they break you down off the dribble. That's how they get 60 points in the paint."
Wittman went on to say that Bradley Beal, Trevor Ariza and Martell Webster were turning down shots. That trio made 6 of 23 attempts for 22 points, with Beal 2 of 10 for nine in a losing effort last night. It was the Wizards third straight loss.
"I was just taking what they were giving me. I found my teammates open," Beal said. "We just didn't make shots and that's all it was."
