What you need to know about the Hawks

Atlanta was within striking distance, but couldn't close the gap last Friday as the Hawks fell 112-107 to the Boston Celtics. A silver lining for Atlanta was the play of John Collins, who dropped his sixth consecutive double-double with 30 points and 10 rebounds.

Trae Young missed the game with an ankle injury, but is expected to return for Sunday's game. He has scored 30-plus points in three of his past four games. The team is also hopeful that newly-acquired center Dewayne Dedmon will be available. Another new Hawks center, Clint Capela (heel) is out. De'Andre Hunter (ankle) is questionable, Cam Reddish (concussion) is doubtful, and Treveon Graham (knee) is probable.

What you need to know about the Knicks

New York narrowly escaped with a victory over the Detroit Pistons, 95-92, last time out. The top scorers for New York were Wayne Ellington (17 points) and Julius Randle (17 points). Newly acquired Knick Maurice Harkless is expected to join the team for Sunday's game.

Atlanta suffered a 143-120 defeat to New York the last time the two teams met on Dec. 17, and Young scored a whopping 42 points in that game.
